Discovering Frequent Agreement Subtrees from Phylogenetic Data
We study a new data mining problem concerning the discovery of frequent agreement subtrees (FASTs) from a set of phylogenetic trees. A phylogenetic tree, or phylogeny, is an unorde...

Uncovering Hidden Phylogenetic Consensus
Abstract. Many of the steps in phylogenetic reconstruction can be confounded by “rogue” taxa, taxa that cannot be placed with assurance anywhere within the tree—whose locatio...

Detecting lateral gene transfers by statistical reconciliation of phylogenetic forests
Background: To understand the evolutionary role of Lateral Gene Transfer (LGT), accurate methods are needed to identify transferred genes and infer their timing of acquisition. Ph...

From learning taxonomies to phylogenetic learning: Integration of 16S rRNA gene data into FAME-based bacterial classification
Background: Machine learning techniques have shown to improve bacterial species classification based on fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) data. Nonetheless, FAME analysis has a limit...
