Algorithms to Distinguish the Role of Gene-Conversion from Single-Crossover Recombination in the Derivation of SNP Sequences in
Meiotic recombination is a fundamental biological event and one of the principal evolutionary forces responsible for shaping genetic variation within species. In addition to its fu...

Phylogenetic Profiling of Insertions and Deletions in Vertebrate Genomes
Micro-indels are small insertion or deletion events (indels) that occur during genome evolution. The study of micro-indels is important, both in order to better understand the unde...

Permutation Filtering: A Novel Concept for Significance Analysis of Large-Scale Genomic Data
Permutation of class labels is a common approach to build null distributions for significance analyis of microarray data. It is assumed to produce random score distributions, which...

A Sublinear-Time Randomized Approximation Scheme for the Robinson-Foulds Metric
The Robinson-Foulds (RF) metric is the measure most widely used in comparing phylogenetic trees; it can be computed in linear time using Day's algorithm. When faced with the n...

Alignment Statistics for Long-Range Correlated Genomic Sequences
It is well known that the base composition along eukaryotic genomes is long-range correlated. Here, we investigate the effect of such long-range correlations on alignment score sta...

Improving Prediction of Zinc Binding Sites by Modeling the Linkage Between Residues Close in Sequence
Abstract. We describe and empirically evaluate machine learning methods for the prediction of zinc binding sites from protein sequences. We start by observing that a data set consi...
