Non-breaking Similarity of Genomes with Gene Repetitions
Abstract. In this paper we define a new similarity measure, the nonbreaking similarity, which is the complement of the famous breakpoint distance between genomes (in general, betw...

A general and efficient method for estimating continuous IBD functions for use in genome scans for QTL
Background: Identity by descent (IBD) matrix estimation is a central component in mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) using variance component models. A large number of algor...

Structural Properties and Tractability Results for Linear Synteny
The syntenic dista nce between two species is the minimum number of fusions, fissions, and translocations required to transform one genome into the other. The linear syntenic dis...

The similarity metric
—A new class of distances appropriate for measuring similarity relations between sequences, say one type of similarity per distance, is studied. We propose a new “normalized in...
