A Sublinear-Time Randomized Approximation Scheme for the Robinson-Foulds Metric
The Robinson-Foulds (RF) metric is the measure most widely used in comparing phylogenetic trees; it can be computed in linear time using Day's algorithm. When faced with the n...

Exact Bipartite Crossing Minimization under Tree Constraints
A tanglegram consists of a pair of (not necessarily binary) trees T1, T2 with leaf sets L1, L2. Additional edges, called tangles, may connect nodes in L1 with those in L2. The task...

Estimating the destructiveness of crossover on binary tree representations
In some cases, evolutionary algorithms represent individuals as typical binary trees with n leaves and n-1 internal nodes. When designing a crossover operator for a particular rep...

Absolute convergence: true trees from short sequences
Fast-converging methods for reconstructing phylogenetic trees require that the sequences characterizing the taxa be of only polynomial length, a major asset in practice, since rea...

Drawing Binary Tanglegrams: An Experimental Evaluation
A tanglegram is a pair of trees whose leaf sets are in oneto-one correspondence; matching leaves are connected by inter-tree edges. In applications such as phylogenetics or hierar...
