Sequence data for a group of species is often summarized by a distance matrix M where M[s, t] is the dissimilarity between the sequences of species s and t. An ordinal assertion is...
The effects of neutrality on evolutionary search have been considered in a number of interesting studies, the results of which, however, have been contradictory. Some researchers ...
Background: The Monte Carlo simulation of sequence evolution is routinely used to assess the performance of phylogenetic inference methods and sequence alignment algorithms. Progr...

In this paper we embed evolutionary computation into statistical learning theory. First, we outline the connection between large margin optimization and statistical learning and s...
In recent years, there has been an increase in research activities on Memetic Algorithm (MA). MA works with memes; a meme being defined as “the basic unit of cultural transmiss...
