slouch - Stochastic Linear Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Comparative Hypotheses

An implementation of a phylogenetic comparative method. It can fit univariate among-species Ornstein-Uhlenbeck models of phenotypic trait evolution, where the trait evolves towards a primary optimum. The optimum can be modelled as a single parameter, as multiple discrete regimes on the phylogenetic tree, and/or with continuous covariates. See also Hansen (1997) <doi:10.2307/2411186>, Butler & King (2004) <doi:10.1086/426002>, Hansen et al. (2008) <doi:10.1111/j.1558-5646.2008.00412.x>.

CRABS - Congruent Rate Analyses in Birth-Death Scenarios

Features tools for exploring congruent phylogenetic birth-death models. It can construct the pulled speciation- and net-diversification rates from a reference model. Given alternative speciation- or extinction rates, it can construct new models that are congruent with the reference model. Functionality is included to sample new rate functions, and to visualize the distribution of one congruence class. See also Louca & Pennell (2020) <doi:10.1038/s41586-020-2176-1>.

RPesto - Phylogenetic Estimation of Shifts in the Tempo of Origination

Implements diversification analyses using the phylogenetic birth-death-shift model. It leverages belief propagation techniques to calculate branch-specific diversification rates, see Kopperud & Hoehna (2025) <doi:10.1093/sysbio/syaf041>.
