A topological transformation in evolutionary tree search methods based on maximum likelihood combining p-ECR and neighbor joinin
Background: Inference of evolutionary trees using the maximum likelihood principle is NP-hard. Therefore, all practical methods rely on heuristics. The topological transformations...

A compression algorithm for DNA sequences and its applications in genome comparison
We present a lossless compression algorithm, GenCompress, for genetic sequences, based on searching for approximate repeats. Our algorithm achieves the best compression ratios for...

Dynamic and Parallel Approaches to Optimal Evolutionary Tree Construction
Phylogenetic trees are commonly reconstructed based on hard optimization problems such as Maximum parsimony (MP) and Maximum likelihood (ML). Conventional MP heuristics for produc...

Evolutionary tree genetic programming
We introduce a clustering-based method of subpopulation management in genetic programming (GP) called Evolutionary Tree Genetic Programming (ETGP). The biological motivation behin...

Constructing a Smallest Refining Galled Phylogenetic Network
Reticulation events occur frequently in many types of species. Therefore, to develop accurate methods for reconstructing phylogenetic networks in order to describe evolutionary his...
