Maximum likelihood of phylogenetic networks
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is believed to be ubiquitous among bacteria, and plays a major role in their genome diversiļ¬cation as well as their ability to develop resistance t...

On contract-and-refine transformations between phylogenetic trees
The inference of evolutionary trees using approaches which attempt to solve the maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML) optimization problems is a standard part of much...

Improving Tree Search in Phylogenetic Reconstruction from Genome Rearrangement Data
Abstract. A major task in evolutionary biology is to determine the ancestral relationships among the known species, a process generally referred as phylogenetic reconstruction. In ...

Using jackknife to assess the quality of gene order phylogenies
Background: In recent years, gene order data has attracted increasing attention from both biologists and computer scientists as a new type of data for phylogenetic analysis. If ge...

Dynamic and Parallel Approaches to Optimal Evolutionary Tree Construction
Phylogenetic trees are commonly reconstructed based on hard optimization problems such as Maximum parsimony (MP) and Maximum likelihood (ML). Conventional MP heuristics for produc...
