Markov Chain Monte-Carlo Phylogenetic Inference Construction in Computational Historical Linguistics
More and more languages in the world are under study nowadays, as a result, the traditional way of historical linguistics study is facing some challenges. For example, the linguistic comparative research among languages needs manual annotation, which becomes more and more impossible with the increasing amount of language data coming out all around the world. Although it could hardly replace linguists work, the automatic computational methods have been taken into consideration and it can help people reduce their workload. One of the most important work in historical linguistics is word comparison from different languages and find the cognate words for them, which means people try to figure out if the two languages are related to each other or not. In this paper, I am going to use computational method to cluster the languages and use Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method to build the language typology relationship tree based on the clusters.

An Annealed Sequential Monte Carlo Method for Bayesian Phylogenetics
We describe an "embarrassingly parallel" method for Bayesian phylogenetic inference, annealed Sequential Monte Carlo, based on recent advances in the Sequential Monte Carlo literature such as adaptive determination of an…

Fidelity of Hyperbolic Space for Bayesian Phylogenetic Inference
Bayesian inference for phylogenetics is a gold standard for computing distributions of phylogenies. It faces the challenging problem of. moving throughout the high-dimensional space of trees. However, hyperbolic space of…
