Joint Distribution for K Matched Sequences

Description

This function calculates the joint distribution array for K matched sequences.

Usage

gn(theta, merge2)

Arguments

theta

a vector of variables containing the following parameters in this order–1. the first three parameters from \pi_X vector, 2. the first three parameters from \pi_Y vector, 3. the first three parameters from f_0 vector, 4. the six off-diagonal free parameters in the S matrix, 5. a scalar \rho, 6. a vector of lengths containing K-2 values

merge2

(K-1) x 2 matrix describing the tree topology

Details

This function calculates the joint distribution array for a tree with K matched sequences. it uses the following functions– Pt, Fmatrix and Smatrix.

Value

A 4^K array containing the joint distribution for the K edges
