Abstract. One of the simplest evolutionary models has molecular sequences evolving from a common ancestor down a bifurcating phylogenetic tree, experiencing point-mutations along t...
Conventional phylogenetic tree estimation methods assume that all sites in a DNA multiple alignment have the same evolutionary history. This assumption is violated in data sets fro...
Let n/d ∈ Q, m be a positive integer and let u = n/d mod m. Thus u is the image of a rational number modulo m. The rational reconstruction problem is; given u and m find n/d.
Consider a scenario where an l-bit secret has been distributed among n players by an honest dealer using some secret sharing scheme. Then, if all players behave honestly, the secre...
In this paper, we present an algorithm to simultaneously align three biological sequences with affine gap model and infer their common ancestral sequence. Our algorithm can be fu...
