glinvci: Phylogenetic Comparative Methods with Uncertainty Estimates

A framework for analytically computing the asymptotic confidence intervals and maximum-likelihood estimates of a class of continuous-time Gaussian branching processes defined by Mitov V, Bartoszek K, Asimomitis G, Stadler T (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.tpb.2019.11.005>. The class of model includes the widely used Ornstein-Uhlenbeck and Brownian motion branching processes. The framework is designed to be flexible enough so that the users can easily specify their own sub-models, or re-parameterizations, and obtain the maximum-likelihood estimates and confidence intervals of their own custom models.
