We introduce the first polynomial-time phylogenetic reconstruction algorithm under a model of sequence evolution allowing insertions and deletions—or indels. Given appropriate ...
As an increasing number of eukaryotic genomes are being sequenced, comparative studies aimed at detecting regulatory elements in intergenic sequences are becoming more prevalent. M...
We analyze the performance of the popular class of neighbor-joining methods of phylogeny reconstruction. In particular, we find conditions under which these methods will determine ...
We demonstrate the use of computational phylogenetic techniques to solve a central problem in inferential network monitoring. More precisely, we design a novel algorithm for multi...
The field of bioinformatics is witnessing a rapid and overwhelming accumulation of molecular sequence data, predominantly driven by novel wet-lab sequencing techniques. This trend...
