Dynamic and Parallel Approaches to Optimal Evolutionary Tree Construction
Phylogenetic trees are commonly reconstructed based on hard optimization problems such as Maximum parsimony (MP) and Maximum likelihood (ML). Conventional MP heuristics for produc...

A GA for maximum likelihood phylogenetic inference using neighbour-joining as a genotype to phenotype mapping
Evolutionary relationships among species can be represented by a phylogenetic tree and inferred by optimising some measure of fitness, such as the statistical likelihood of the t...

Approximating the Maximum Isomorphic Agreement Subtree Is Hard
The Maximum Isomorphic Agreement Subtree (MIT) problem is one of the simplest versions of the Maximum Interval Weight Agreement Subtree method (MIWT) which is used to compare phyl...

Fast estimation of the difference between two PAM/JTT evolutionary distances in triplets of homologous sequences
Background: The estimation of the difference between two evolutionary distances within a triplet of homologs is a common operation that is used for example to determine which of t...
