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...

Statistical distributions of optimal global alignment scores of random protein sequences
Background: The inference of homology from statistically significant sequence similarity is a central issue in sequence alignments. So far the statistical distribution function un...

Scoredist: A simple and robust protein sequence distance estimator
Background: Distance-based methods are popular for reconstructing evolutionary trees thanks to their speed and generality. A number of methods exist for estimating distances from ...

Top-Down Induction of Phylogenetic Trees
We propose a novel distance based method for phylogenetic tree reconstruction. Our method is based on a conceptual clustering method that extends the well-known decision tree learn...
