Statistically Consistent Estimation of Level-1 Phylogenetic Networks from SNPs

Explore a 20-minute conference talk from the Computational Genomics Summer Institute (CGSI) 2024 on statistically consistent estimation of level-1 phylogenetic networks from SNP data. Delve into the research presented by Tandy Warnow, which builds upon recent work in phylogenetic network estimation. Gain insights into the algorithms and methods used for combining rooted triplets into galled phylogenetic networks and the application of quartet-based approaches to unrooted phylogenetic networks. Examine the statistical consistency of estimating both rooted and unrooted level-1 phylogenetic networks using SNP data, as discussed in Warnow's recent paper presented at the RECOMB International Workshop on Comparative Genomics.
