If x* s feasble and all constrants are useful, then output x*, else remove the most useless constrant 0 and go to 3 5.

16 Tree rootng For any gven edge, we use a slghtly modfed versons of LD and QPD to fnd the best rootng poston on that edge (.e. mnmzng WLS). Run LD or QPD on every edge of the tree, and fnd the best root poston n O(n 2 ) Stll qute fast wth LD Wth QPD, we frst run LD to fnd an ntal soluton, and then run QPD n a hll-clmbng fashon to mprove that soluton (most of the tme LD soluton s best, or nearly best) Smulaton results Brth-death trees wth varous death rates (DR), 70 to 110 taxa Uncorrelated, log-normal relaxed clock model F84+ substtuton model, 500 stes "HIV" parameters (n between Pol and env) nter-host DR = 0.75 ntra-host DR =

18 Rate tmrca Desappontng results wth BEAST (no outgroup, complete tme-scaled tree) All dates True rooted tree topology BEAST-RMC s consstently best to estmate all node dates (but tny dfferences, and stll some trouble wth rate estm.) 18

19 Computng tmes (n seconds taxa) 1,195 H1N1 nfluenza strans + outgroup Same methods and optons as wth smulated data We also ran BEAST wth fxed rooted PhyML topology 100 bootstrap replcates to obtan confdence ntervals 19

20 Results are mostly consstent wth smulatons Large ntervals wth unrooted nput tree (LD, QPD, RTT) QPD* and LF* are very close, and compatble wth BEAST* LD+PhyML : ~7% of volated temporal constrants (> 1month) QPD has a clear advantage! BEAST + TreeAnnotator : ~2% - BEAST* + TreeAnnotator : 0% 20

21 Computng tmes (wth 100 boostrap rep.) BEAST : PhyML : FastME : RTT, LD, QPD, LF* : QPD* : RTT*, LD* : 5 (*) to 20 days (Beagle, GPU ) 4 days (desktop, not parallelzed) 1 hour 1 hour 2 mn 10 sec. Summary Ablty to deal wth rooted and unrooted trees Provde estmates for the rate and all node dates Smlar accuracy as LF (despte normal approxmaton) and BEAST (stll unexplaned) Fast and already used wth very large datasets Mourad et al.
