Greedy Selection of Species for Ancestral State Reconstruction on Phylogenies: Elimination Is Better than Insertion

Accurate reconstruction of ancestral character states on a phylogeny is crucial in many genomics studies. We study how to select species to achieve the best reconstruction of ancestral character states on a phylogeny. We first show that the marginal maximum likelihood has the monotonicity property t...
