Constructing Evolutionary Trees in the Presence of Polymorphic Characters
Abstract. Most phylogenetics literature and construction methods based upon characters presume monomorphism (one state per character per species), yet polymorphism (multiple states...

Induce-Statements and Induce-Expressions: Constructs for Inductive Programming
A for-loop is somewhat similar to an inductive argument. Just as the truth of a proposition P(n + 1) depends on the truth of P(n), the correctness of iteration n+1 of a for-loop de...

Novel methodology for construction and pruning of quasi-median networks
Background: Visualising the evolutionary history of a set of sequences is a challenge for molecular phylogenetics. One approach is to use undirected graphs, such as median network...

Consistency of the Neighbor-Net Algorithm
Background: Neighbor-Net is a novel method for phylogenetic analysis that is currently being widely used in areas such as virology, bacteriology, and plant evolution. Given an inp...

Constructing a Smallest Refining Galled Phylogenetic Network
Reticulation events occur frequently in many types of species. Therefore, to develop accurate methods for reconstructing phylogenetic networks in order to describe evolutionary his...
