Phylogenetic Tree Inference on PC Architectures with AxML/PAxML
Inference of phylogenetic trees comprising hundreds or even thousands of organisms based on the maximum likelihood method is computationally extremely expensive. In previous work,...

Construction of phylogenetic trees by kernel-based comparative analysis of metabolic networks
Background: To infer the tree of life requires knowledge of the common characteristics of each species descended from a common ancestor as the measuring criteria and a method to c...

A Chemical-Distance-Based Test for Positive Darwinian Selection
There are very few instances in which positive Darwinian selection has been convincingly demonstrated at the molecular level. In this study, we present a novel test for detecting p...

Phylogenetic Inference in Protein Superfamilies: Analysis of SH2 Domains
This workfocuses on the inference of evolutionary relationships in protein superfamilies, and the uses of these relationships to identify keypositions in the structure, to infer a...

Finding a maximum likelihood tree is hard
Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) is an increasingly popular optimality criterion for selecting evolutionary trees [Felsenstein 1981]. Finding optimal ML trees appears to be a very...
