Release Notes

• Speed & Memory
  • [65%-300% faster] Rewrite core.
  • [0%-300% less memory] Rewrite core.
• Features
  • Likelihood rescaling (compute likelihoods for large trees).
  • New treelength prior: don't prefer huge treelengths for trees with lots of leaves.
  • Allow analyzing 1- and 2-sequence alignments.
  • Print out the model and priors (including defaults)
  • Allow specifying priors for substitution model and indel model,
    • --smodel=HKY[kappa=2].
    • --imodel=RS07[logLambda~Laplace[-4,0.707],meanIndelLengthMinus1~Exponential[10]]
  • Allow specifying priors on scale factors for branch lengths in each partition:
    • --scale=~Gamma[0.5,2]
    • --scale=1
  • Allow specifying priors on branch lengths.
    • --branch-length=~Gamma[0.5,0.1]
• Misc
  • Add unit tests.
• Changes
  • Simplify command-line options (some old options have been removed).
