Identifiability of 3-Class Jukes-Cantor Mixtures
2014
We prove identifiability of the tree parameters of the 3-class Jukes-Cantor mixture model. The proof uses ideas from algebraic statistics, in particular: finding phylogenetic invariants that separate the varieties associated to different triples of trees; computing dimensions of the resulting phylogenetic varieties; and using the disentangling number to reduce to trees with a small number of leaves. Symbolic computation also plays a key role in handling the many different cases and finding relevant phylogenetic invariants.
