# Incorporating Fossils in HiSSE, MuHiSSE, and MiSSE In hisse: Hidden State Speciation and Extinction

knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE) knitr::opts_chunk$set(cache=FALSE)


As of version 2.1.1, we have added the ability for HiSSE, MuHiSSE, and MiSSE to handle fossils as well as stratigraphic ranges. Our fossilized birth-death model (FBD) closely follows that of Stadler (2010), and includes a new parameter, $\psi$, that estimates the rate of fossils preservation in a birth-death model. We have extended Stadler's basic model to the SSE equations of Maddison et al. (2007), the details of which will be included in a forthcoming paper (Beaulieu and O'Meara, In prep). Below I will demonstrate how to set up HiSSE, MuHiSSE, and MiSSE models when the tree and data contain fossils. I will mainly focus on MiSSE, as it is the most straightforward and because it can be used to demonstrate that both the HiSSE and MuHiSSE likelihoods are correct.

Before getting started, be sure to load the hisse and TreeSim packages:

suppressPackageStartupMessages(library(hisse))


Also, there are two important terms that need to be understood. Under the FBD there are actually two types of fossils that are sampled. The first are referred to as m fossils, which represent extinct tips -- that is, they represent distinct branches that went extinct before the present. The second are referred k fossils, which represent samples of lineages that eventually made it to the present. In most cases, both fossil types must be present for the FBD to work well, though having k fossils is not absolutely critical for hisse whereas m fossils are.

## Simulating a practice data set under MiSSE

I will first simulate a tree with fossil samples under a simple birth-death model. This will be used as input into MiSSE, which sets up and executes a completely trait-free version of a HiSSE model (i.e., hidden states only). The first step is to simulate a tree that contains the complete history of the trees -- that is, includes both taxa that survived to the present and those that did not:

set.seed(42)
phy <- TreeSim::sim.bd.taxa(n = 100, numbsim = 1, lambda = 0.3, mu = 0.2)[[1]]


In order to sample both extinct tips and edges, consistent under the fossilized birth-death model, we have written customized functions that takes as input the full tree and a value for $\psi$ and returns a sampled tree:

f <- GetFossils(phy, psi=0.05)
fbd.tree <- ProcessSimSample(phy, f)


The first function, GetFossils() samples edges and extinct tips and provides a detailed table about these samples. The second function, ProcessSimSample(), takes the detailed table and provides a phylogeny that contains sampled extinct tips and a table that contains the location of the edge samples. Let's look at the setup of the edge samples table:

names(fbd.tree)
head(fbd.tree$k.samples)  Internally, MiSSE will assume that the two taxa specified has an MRCA that is subtended by the branch where these edge fossils are located. The time from the present will know at what point on this branch this sample was taken. Note that if the branch from which a sample was taken is a tip branch, simply list the tip taxon twice (e.g., taxon1="sp12", taxon2="sp12"). Internally, MiSSE will place these fossils for you. For hisse() this table requires the state (if they are present): k.samples <- data.frame(taxon1="sp12", taxon2="sp12", timefrompresent=3.164384, state=1, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)  and MuHiSSE(), k.samples <- data.frame(taxon1="sp12", taxon2="sp12", timefrompresent=3.164384, state1=0, state2=1, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)  ## Setting up a MiSSE model Running MiSSE() (or hisse(), and MuHiSSE()) is essentially the same as before, turnover <- c(1) eps <- c(1) one.rate <- MiSSE(fbd.tree$phy, f=1, turnover=turnover, eps=eps,
includes.fossils=TRUE, k.samples=fdb.tree$k.samples, sann=TRUE, sann.its=1000)  Note that the only two additions to the function call are includes.fossils=TRUE, which indicates that the tree contains at least m fossils, and k.samples= that takes the table of edge samples. If no edge samples exist, this can be set to NULL, one.rate <- MiSSE(fbd.tree$phy, f=1, turnover=turnover, eps=eps,
includes.fossils=TRUE, k.samples=NULL, sann=TRUE, sann.its=1000)


and the estimate of $\psi$ will reflect sampling of extinct tips only. This actually has a pronounced effect on the parameter estimates generally and is a general violation of the fossilized birth-death model of Stadler (2010).

When reconstructing rates and/or states on the tree, the MarginReconMiSSE() also requires the same inputs:

margin.test <- MarginReconMiSSE(phy=fbd.tree$phy, f=1, pars=one.rate$solution,
hidden.states=1, includes.fossils=TRUE, k.samples=fbd.tree$k.samples, aic=one.rate$AIC)


## Using HiSSE and MuHiSSE

The general structure for running hisse() and MuHiSSE() is identical to running MiSSE(). Below are examples that assume that the tree contains extinct taxa and a properly formatted k.samples table (assuming there are edge samples).

HiSSE:

trans.rate <- TransMatMakerHiSSE()
pp <- hisse(phy=fbd.tree$phy, data, f=c(1,1), turnover=c(1,1), eps=c(1,1), trans.rate=trans.rate, k.samples=fbd.tree$k.samples,
includes.fossils=TRUE)
margin.test <- MarginReconHiSSE(phy=fbd.tree$phy, data=data, f=c(1,1), pars=pp$solution, hidden.states=1, includes.fossils=TRUE,
k.samples=fbd.tree$k.samples)  MuHiSSE: trans.rate <- TransMatMakerMuHiSSE() pp <- MuHiSSE(phy=fbd.tree$phy, data, f=c(1,1,1,1), turnover=c(1,1,1,1),
eps=c(1,1,1,1), trans.rate=trans.rate, k.samples=k.samples,
includes.fossils=TRUE)
margin.test <- MarginReconMuHiSSE(phy=fbd.tree$phy, data=data, f=c(1,1,1,1), pars=pp$solution, hidden.states=1, includes.fossils=TRUE,
k.samples=fbd.tree$k.samples)  ## Stratigraphic ranges We have also implemented the FBD model with stratigraphic ranges and I will show how to set up a standard run using the simulated data above. The first step is to take the fossil set sampled above and convert them to stratigraphic ranges. This can be done using a custom function within hisse: strat.tree <- ProcessSimStrat(phy, f)  As with the ProcessSimSample(), ProcessSimStrat() takes the sampled fossil set and provides a phylogeny that contains sampled extinct tips and a table that contains the location of each stratigraphic range. The table of stratigraphic ranges requires a particular format: names(strat.tree) head(strat.tree$strat.intervals)


The columns taxon1 and taxon2 are two taxa specified whose MRCA is subtended by the branch where the stratigraphic range is located. The timefrompresentroot is the time at the rootward end stratigraphic range (denoted by $o_{i}$ by Stadler et al. 2018) and timefrompresenttip is the time at the tipward end of range (denoted by $y_{i}$). Finally, the column type contains either an R for true stratigraphic ranges (i.e., o_{i} - y_{i} > 0) or an S for singleton fossils (i.e., o_{i} - y_{i} = 0). Note, as with the canoical FBD implementation above, if the branch from which a range was sampled is a tip branch, simply list the tip taxon twice (e.g., taxon1="sp12", taxon2="sp12").

A run proceeds exactly as before, except instead we supply the stratigraphic range table to the "strat.interval" option in the function call:

turnover <- c(1)
eps <- c(1)
one.rate <- MiSSE(strat.tree$phy, f=1, turnover=turnover, eps=eps, includes.fossils=TRUE, k.samples=NULL, strat.intervals=strat.tree$strat.intervals, sann=TRUE,
sann.its=5000)


When reconstructing rates and/or states on the tree, the MarginReconMiSSE() also requires the same inputs:

margin.test <- MarginReconMiSSE(phy=strat.tree$phy, f=1, pars=one.rate$solution,
hidden.states=1, includes.fossils=TRUE, k.samples=NULL,
strat.intervals=strat.tree$strat.intervals, aic=one.rate$AIC)


## Plotting simulated data sets

Plotting functions of the reconstructions work as they did before and do not require any additional arguments. However, we have added functionality for overlaying the fossil set and stratigraphic ranges obtained from our simulation functions. For example, here I will plot the full simulated tree from above, and then add the m and k fossils as points onto of the phylogeny:

plot(ladderize(phy), show.tip.label=FALSE, edge.width=0.75)
### Split the table into m and k for the points ###
extinct.samples <- f[which(f$fossiltype_long=="extinct_terminal" | f$fossiltype_long=="extinct_internal"),]
k.samples.tmp <- extinct.samples[which(extinct.samples$has_sampled_descendant == TRUE),] extinct.samples <- extinct.samples[which(extinct.samples$has_sampled_descendant == FALSE),]
k.samples <- f[which(f$fossiltype_long == "surviving_terminal" | f$fossiltype_long == "surviving_internal"),]
k.samples <- rbind(k.samples, k.samples.tmp)
col="#0D79F2")


We can also overaly the lines designating stratigraphic ranges:

plot(ladderize(phy), show.tip.label=FALSE, edge.width=0.75)
col="#0D79F2")


## Checking the MiSSE, HiSSE, and MuHiSSE likelihoods

The easiest way to check that the likelihoods calculated by MiSSE(), hisse(), and MuHiSSE() for the standard FBD are correct is to take the likelihood calculated by MiSSE() and add this to the likelihood of a simple Markov transition model. As described in Caetano et al. (2018), an SSE model jointly maximizes the probability of the observed states at the tips and the observed tree, given the model. Thus, if the character is completely disassociated from the rate differences in the tree (with what we call a character independent model) then this test should work.

I will show this test here. First, I will calculate the likelihood of a simple BiSSE model, where the diversification rates are the same for states 0 and 1, on a simulated dataset that contains fossils:

library(diversitree)
pars <- c(0.1, 0.2, 0.03, 0.03, 0.01, 0.01)
set.seed(4)
phy <- NULL
while( is.null( phy ) ){
phy <- tree.bisse(pars, max.t=30, x0=0, include.extinct=TRUE)
}
k.samples <- data.frame(taxon1="sp12", taxon2="sp12", timefrompresent=3.164384,
state=1, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
hidden.states=FALSE
fix.type <- hisse:::GetKSampleMRCA(phy.k, k.samples)
nb.tip <- Ntip(phy.k)
nb.node <- phy.k$Nnode gen <- hisse:::FindGenerations(phy.k) data <- data.frame(taxon=names(phy$tip.state), phy$tip.state, stringsAsFactors=FALSE) data <- hisse:::AddKData(data, k.samples) data.new <- data.frame(data[,2], data[,2], row.names=data[,1]) data.new <- data.new[phy.k$tip.label,]

dat.tab <- hisse:::OrganizeDataHiSSE(data.new, phy=phy.k, f=c(1,1),
hidden.states=FALSE)
edge_details <- hisse:::GetEdgeDetails(phy=phy.k,
intervening.intervals=strat.cache$intervening.intervals) fossil.taxa <- edge_details$tipward_node[which(edge_details$type == "extinct_tip")] pars.bisse <- c(0.1+0.03, 0.1+0.03, 0.03/0.1, 0.03/0.1, 0.01, 0.01) model.vec <- numeric(48) model.vec[1:6] = pars.bisse phy$node.label = NULL
cache <- hisse:::ParametersToPassfHiSSE(model.vec, hidden.states=hidden.states,
f=c(1,1), ode.eps=0)
cache$psi <- 0.01 hisse.full <- hisse:::DownPassHiSSE(dat.tab, gen, cache, root.type="madfitz", condition.on.survival=TRUE, root.p=NULL, node=fix.type$node,
state=fix.type$state, fossil.taxa=fossil.taxa, fix.type=fix.type$type)


Next we will calculate the likelihood of just the tree using MiSSE():

dat.tab <- hisse:::OrganizeDataMiSSE(phy=phy.k, f=1, hidden.states=1)
model.vec <- c(0.1+0.03, 0.03/0.1, rep(0,51))
cache = hisse:::ParametersToPassMiSSE(model.vec=model.vec, hidden.states=1,
fixed.eps=NULL, nb.tip=nb.tip, nb.node=nb.node,
cache$psi <- 0.01 gen <- hisse:::FindGenerations(phy.k) MiSSE.logL <- hisse:::DownPassMisse(dat.tab=dat.tab, cache=cache, gen=gen, condition.on.survival=TRUE, root.type="madfitz", root.p=NULL, fossil.taxa=fossil.taxa, node=fix.type$node, fix.type=fix.type$type)  Finally, I will use corHMM to calculate the likelihood of just character data: library(corHMM) char.logL <- corHMM(phy.k, data, rate.cat=1, model = "ER", node.states = "none", fixed.nodes=FALSE, p=0.01, root.p="maddfitz")  We can compare the likelihoods obtained from hisse() against the sum of the tree and the character: tot.logL <- char.logL$loglik + MiSSE.logL
comparison <- identical(round(hisse.full,3), round(tot.logL,3))
comparison


This confirms that the calculations are correct. I will show the same using MuHiSSE():

library(diversitree)
pars <- c(.1,  .15,  .2, .1,
.03, .045, .06, 0.03,

phy <- NULL
while( is.null( phy ) ){
phy <- tree.musse(pars, 30, x0=1, include.extinct=TRUE)
}
k.samples <- data.frame(taxon1="sp20", taxon2="sp37", timefrompresent=8.54554,
state1=0, state2=1, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)

fix.type <- hisse:::GetKSampleMRCA(phy.k, k.samples)
nb.tip <- Ntip(phy.k)
nb.node <- phy.k$Nnode gen <- hisse:::FindGenerations(phy.k) states <- phy$tip.state
states <- data.frame(phy$tip.state, phy$tip.state,
row.names=names(phy$tip.state)) states <- states[phy$tip.label,]
states.trans <- states
for(i in 1:Ntip(phy)){
if(states[i,1] == 1){
states.trans[i,1] = 0
states.trans[i,2] = 0

}

states.trans[i,2] = 0
}
if(states[i,1] == 4){
states.trans[i,1] = 1
states.trans[i,2] = 1
}
}
