Estimating absolute rates of molecular evolution and divergence times: a penalized likelihood approach.
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
A semiparametric smoothing method is developed using penalized likelihood, a saturated model in which every lineage has a separate rate combined with a roughness penalty that discourages rates from varying too much across a phylogeny.
