Maximum likelihood and models Likelihood of a tree But, the process of evolution is so complex and multifaceted that Computational complexity basic models involve assumptions built upon assumptions. Statistical properties Maximum parsimony This reliance is often seen as a weakness of the likelihood Maximum likelihood Experimental design framework, but Hypothesis • the need to make explicit assumptions is a strength testing Tree support • enable both inferences about evolutionary history and Tests of topology Tests of models assessments of the accuracy of the assumptions made • this led to a better understanding of evolution “The purpose of models is not to fit the data, but to sharpen the questions” (S. Karlin)
