Discovering Frequent Agreement Subtrees from Phylogenetic Data
We study a new data mining problem concerning the discovery of frequent agreement subtrees (FASTs) from a set of phylogenetic trees. A phylogenetic tree, or phylogeny, is an unorde...

The Complexity of Inferring a Minimally Resolved Phylogenetic Supertree
Abstract. A recursive algorithm by Aho, Sagiv, Szymanski, and Ullman [1] forms the basis for many modern rooted supertree methods employed in Phylogenetics. However, as observed by...

Iterative Rounding for Multi-Objective Optimization Problems
In this paper we show that iterative rounding is a powerful and flexible tool in the design of approximation algorithms for multiobjective optimization problems. We illustrate tha...

A General Approximation Technique for Constrained Forest Problems
We present a general approximation technique for a large class of graph problems. Our technique mostly applies to problems of covering, at minimum cost, the vertices of a graph wit...

Primal-dual meets local search: approximating MST's with nonuniform degree bounds
We present a new bicriteria approximation algorithm for the degree-bounded minimum-cost spanning tree problem: Given an undirected graph with nonnegative edge weights and degree b...
