as.pml: Likelihood of a tree.

Description

pml computes the likelihood of a phylogenetic tree given a sequence alignment and a model. optim.pml optimizes the different model parameters. For a more user-friendly interface see pml_bb.

Usage

as.pml(x, ...)

pml(tree, data, bf = NULL, Q = NULL, inv = 0, k = 1, shape = 1, rate = 1, model = NULL, site.rate = "gamma", ASC = FALSE, ...)

optim.pml(object, optNni = FALSE, optBf = FALSE, optQ = FALSE, optInv = FALSE, optGamma = FALSE, optEdge = TRUE, optRate = FALSE, optRooted = FALSE, control = pml.control(), model = NULL, rearrangement = ifelse(optNni, "NNI", "none"), subs = NULL, ratchet.par = ratchet.control(), ...)

Value

pml or optim.pml return a list of class pml, some are useful for further computations like

tree

the phylogenetic tree.

data

the alignment.

logLik

Log-likelihood of the tree.

siteLik

Site log-likelihoods.

weight

Weight of the site patterns.

optBf

Logical value indicating whether base frequencies gets optimized.

optQ

Logical value indicating whether rate matrix gets optimized.

optGamma

Logical value indicating whether gamma rate parameter gets optimized.

optEdge

Logical value indicating the edge lengths gets optimized.

optRate

Logical value indicating the overall rate gets optimized.

optRooted

Logical value indicating if the edge lengths of a rooted tree get optimized.

control

A list of parameters for controlling the fitting process.

rearrangement

type of tree tree rearrangements to perform, one of "none", "NNI", "stochastic" or "ratchet"

subs

A (integer) vector same length as Q to specify the optimization of Q

ratchet.par

search parameter for stochastic search

Details

Base frequencies in pml can be supplied in different ways. For amino acid they are usually defined through specifying a model, so the argument bf does not need to be specified. Otherwise if bf=NULL, each state is given equal probability. It can be a numeric vector given the frequencies. Last but not least bf can be string "equal", "empirical" and for codon models additionally "F3x4".

The topology search uses a nearest neighbor interchange (NNI) and the implementation is similar to phyML. The option model in pml is only used for amino acid models. The option model defines the nucleotide model which is getting optimized, all models which are included in modeltest can be chosen. Setting this option (e.g. "K81" or "GTR") overrules options optBf and optQ. Here is a overview how to estimate different phylogenetic models with pml:

modeloptBfoptQ
Jukes-CantorFALSEFALSE
F81TRUEFALSE
symmetricFALSETRUE
GTRTRUETRUE

Via model in optim.pml the following nucleotide models can be specified: JC, F81, K80, HKY, TrNe, TrN, TPM1, K81, TPM1u, TPM2, TPM2u, TPM3, TPM3u, TIM1e, TIM1, TIM2e, TIM2, TIM3e, TIM3, TVMe, TVM, SYM and GTR. These models are specified as in Posada (2008).

So far 17 amino acid models are supported ("WAG", "JTT", "LG", "Dayhoff", "cpREV", "mtmam", "mtArt", "MtZoa", "mtREV24", "VT","RtREV", "HIVw", "HIVb", "FLU", "Blosum62", "Dayhoff_DCMut" and "JTT_DCMut") and additionally rate matrices and amino acid frequencies can be supplied.

It is also possible to estimate codon models (e.g. YN98), for details see also the chapter in vignette("phangorn-specials").

If the option 'optRooted' is set to TRUE than the edge lengths of rooted tree are optimized. The tree has to be rooted and by now ultrametric! Optimising rooted trees is generally much slower.

If rearrangement is set to stochastic a stochastic search algorithm similar to Nguyen et al. (2015). and for ratchet the likelihood ratchet as in Vos (2003). This should helps often to find better tree topologies, especially for larger trees.
