摘要：

A new view of phylogenetic estimation is presented where data sets, tree evolution models, and estimation methods are placed in a common geometric: framework. Each of these objects is placed in a vector space where the character patterns are the basis vectors. This viewpoint allows intuitive understanding:of various complex properties of the phylogenetic estimation problem structure. This is illustrated with examples discussing data set combinations, mixture models, consistency, and phylogenetic invariants. (C) 2000 Academic Press.
