Can somebody please define or point to a reference that defines the three
philosophical views underlying phylogenetic inference that were recently
characterized by Joe Felsenstein as:
hypothetical-deductive
logical parsimony
statistical?
I am particularly interested in the features of each that distinguish them
from one another, and, of course, what assumptions are inherent in each.
Thank you.
