Background: Non-homology based methods such as phylogenetic profiles are effective for predicting functional relationships between proteins with no considerable sequence or struct...

— Rearrangements of genes and other syntenic blocks have become a topic of intensive study by phylogenists, comparative genomicists, and computational biologists: they are a feat...
Abstract. Four local search algorithms are investigated for the phylogenetic tree reconstruction problem under the Maximum Parsimony criterion. A new subtree swapping neighborhood ...
Phylogenetic footprinting is a comparative genomics approach for predicting transcription factor binding sites, where a set of orthologous regulatory regions are compared and short...
We propose a novel distance based method for phylogenetic tree reconstruction. Our method is based on a conceptual clustering method that extends the well-known decision tree learn...
