RASP (Reconstruct Ancestral State in Phylogenies) is a tool for inferring ancestral state using Bayesian, Parsimony or SDIVA method. RASP is the
update version of S-DIVA (Statistical dispersal-vicariance analysis).
Statistical Dispersal-Vicariance Analysis (S-DIVA) is a
program which complements DIVA, implements the methods of Nylander et
al. (2008) and Harris and Xiang (2009), and determines statistical
support for ancestral range reconstructions using a novel method, the
S-DIVA value. In S-DIVA, the frequencies of an ancestral range at a node
in ancestral reconstructions are averaged over all trees and each
alternative ancestral range at a node is weighted by the frequency of
the node occurring or by some other measure of support for the node.
S-DIVA is easy-to-install, provides a user-friendly graphical interface,
and generates exportable, graphical results.
