pyrate's Introduction

PyRate is a program to estimate speciation, extinction, and preservation rates from fossil occurrence data using a Bayesian framework.

PyRate is licensed under a AGPLv3 License.

The program's documentation is available here:

  • Tutorials (work in progress; Older Wiki pages are still available, although updated documentation is being only added to the Tutorials)
  • Instructions to install the fastPyRateC library
  • For questions, suggestions or bugs contact us
