Background: Supertree methods combine the phylogenetic information from multiple partially-overlapping trees into a larger phylogenetic tree called a supertree. Several supertree ...
The bounded diameter minimum spanning tree problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arising, for example, in network design when quality of service is of concern. ...
We show that for every set S of n points in the plane and a designated point rt ∈ S, there exists a tree T that has small maximum degree, depth and weight. Moreover, for every po...
An interesting and important, but largely ignored question associated with the ML method is whether there exists only a single maximum likelihood point for a given phylogenetic tr...
Hierarchical spatial data structures provide a means for organizing data for efficient processing. Most spatial data structures are optimized for performing queries, such as inters...
