Abstract. Given a phylogenetic tree T for a family of tandemly repeated genes and their signed order O on the chromosome, we aim to find the minimum number of inversions compatible...
We present a novel distance-based algorithm for evolutionary tree reconstruction. Our algorithm reconstructs the topology of a tree with n leaves in O(n2 ) time using O(n) working...
Abstract. Much important evolutionary activity occurs in gene clusters, where a copy of a gene may be free to evolve new functions. Computational methods to extract evolutionary in...
Molecular noise, which arises from the randomness of the discrete events in the cell, significantly influences fundamental biological processes. Discrete-state continuous-time st...
In this paper we present our work toward FPGA acceleration of phylogenetic reconstruction, a type of analysis that is commonly performed in the fields of systematic biology and co...
