DLIGHT - Lateral Gene Transfer Detection Using Pairwise Evolutionary Distances in a Statistical Framework
Abstract. This paper presents an algorithm to detect lateral gene transfer (LGT) on the basis of pairwise evolutionary distances. The prediction is made from a likelihood ratio der...

Evolution of Tandemly Repeated Sequences Through Duplication and Inversion
Abstract. Given a phylogenetic tree T for a family of tandemly repeated genes and their signed order O on the chromosome, we aim to find the minimum number of inversions compatible...

Detecting the Dependent Evolution of Biosequences
Abstract. A probabilistic graphical model is developed in order to detect the dependent evolution between different sites in biological sequences. Given a multiple sequence alignme...

A Probabilistic Approach to Diachronic Phonology
We present a probabilistic model of diachronic phonology in which individual word forms undergo stochastic edits along the branches of a phylogenetic tree. Our approach allows us ...

A Probabilistic Approach to Language Change
We present a probabilistic approach to language change in which word forms are represented by phoneme sequences that undergo stochastic edits along the branches of a phylogenetic ...
