Alongside our paper "Bayesian Inference of Pathogen Phylogeography using the Structured Coalescent Model", Ian Roberts released the R package StructCoalescent. You can install it using the command
devtools::install_github("IanPRoberts/StructCoalescent")

To go with our Bayesian Analysis paper "Speeding up Inference of Homologous Recombination in Bacteria", we made a version of the ClonalOrigin package that is callable from R, and which contains the improved RJMCMC method for inference. You can find it at github.com/richardge...
To go along with our paper "Bayesian inference of reproduction number from epidemiological and genetic data using particle MCMC", Alicia Gill released an accompanying R package, EpiSky. You can install it using
devtools::install_github("alicia-gill/EpiSky")

We still have a few places at our CRiSM and LMS workshop at Warwick on 16-17th April on "Environmental Modelling meets Infectious Diseases", exploring the links between these two fields. The schedule is now finalised and available on the website http://go.warwick.ac... Visit the website to register.
Leonardo Ripoli and I arxived the paper "Sequential Monte Carlo with active subspaces". Within an SMC sampler we adaptively identify directions in which the likelihood is not informative, and use this to improve MCMC efficiency at each iteration of the SMC. arxiv.org/abs/2411.0...
This is based on Felipe's code at github.com/fjmedinaa... which includes the new methods. Felipe's code is a modification of the original RJMCMC inference for ClonalOrigin at github.com/xavierdid..., was written by Xavier and his coauthors for the paper academic.oup.com/gen...
The interesting methodological paper "On the utility of Metropolis-Hastings with asymmetric acceptance ratio" on which this work is based can be found at
Felipe Medina Aguayo, Xavier Didelot and I had our work on "Speeding up Inference of Homologous Recombination in Bacteria" published in Bayesian Analysis. We use new parallel annealing-based reversible jump MCMC to obtain more accurate inference for the ClonalOrigin model. projecteuclid.org/jo...

Clonal Origin model using multiple AIS steps. Contribute to fjmedinaaguayo/ClonOr_cpp development by creating an account on GitHub.
The Metropolis-Hastings algorithm allows one to sample asymptotically from any probability distribution $π$. There has been recently much work devoted to the development of variants of the MH...
