Maximum Likelihood Phylogeny

Maximum Likelihood Phylogeny is a phylogenetic inference method that belongs to the class of statistical phylogeny reconstruction techniques, distinguished by its use of a specified evolutionary model to calculate the probability of observed sequence data given a particular tree topology and branch lengths, thereby identifying the tree that maximizes the likelihood of the data under that model.
