With the exponential growth of biological sequence databases, it has become critical to develop effective techniques for storing, querying, and analyzing these massive data. Suffi...
There are two aspects to the work being presented here. The first is a novel persistent index structure for genomic data, a prototype of which has been completed. The second, usin...
Abstract. One phylogeny-based approach to horizontal gene transfer (HGT) detection entails comparing the topology of a gene tree to that of the species tree, and using their differ...
Background: The estimation of the difference between two evolutionary distances within a triplet of homologs is a common operation that is used for example to determine which of t...
