On contract-and-refine transformations between phylogenetic trees
The inference of evolutionary trees using approaches which attempt to solve the maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML) optimization problems is a standard part of much...

Finding a maximum likelihood tree is hard
Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) is an increasingly popular optimality criterion for selecting evolutionary trees [Felsenstein 1981]. Finding optimal ML trees appears to be a very...

Rec-I-DCM3: A Fast Algorithmic Technique for Reconstructing Large Phylogenetic Trees
Phylogenetic trees are commonly reconstructed based on hard optimization problems such as maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML). Conventional MP heuristics for produc...

The Average Common Substring Approach to Phylogenomic Reconstruction
We describe a novel method for efficient reconstruction of phylogenetic trees, based on sequences of whole genomes or proteomes, whose lengths may greatly vary. The core of our me...
