PhyloNet: a software package for analyzing and reconstructing reticulate evolutionary relationships
Background: Phylogenies, i.e., the evolutionary histories of groups of taxa, play a major role in representing the interrelationships among biological entities. Many software tool...

Constructing a meaningful evolutionary average at the phylogenetic center of mass
Background: As a consequence of the evolutionary process, data collected from related species tend to be similar. This similarity by descent can obscure subtler signals in the dat...

Using quotient graphs to model neutrality in evolutionary search
We introduce quotient graphs for modeling neutrality in evolutionary search. We demonstrate that for a variety of evolutionary computing problems, search can be characterized by g...
