Evolving Better Multiple Sequence Alignments
Aligning multiple DNA or protein sequences is a fundamental step in the analyses of phylogeny, homology and molecular structure. Heuristic algorithms are applied because optimal mu...

Variable mesh optimization for continuous optimization problems
Abstract Population-based meta-heuristics are algorithms that can obtain very good results for complex continuous optimization problems in a reduced amount of time. These search al...

Efficient Enumeration of Phylogenetically Informative Substrings
We study the problem of enumerating substrings that are common amongst genomes that share evolutionary descent. For example, one might want to enumerate all identical (therefore co...

Analyzing the landscape of a graph based hyper-heuristic for timetabling problems
Hyper-heuristics can be thought of as “heuristics to choose heuristics”. They are concerned with adaptively finding solution methods, rather than directly producing a solutio...

Constructing a meaningful evolutionary average at the phylogenetic center of mass
Background: As a consequence of the evolutionary process, data collected from related species tend to be similar. This similarity by descent can obscure subtler signals in the dat...
