We study a situation that arises in the somatic evolution of cancer. Consider a finite population of replicating cells and a sequence of mutations: type 0 can mutate to type 1, wh...
We study a design and optimization problem that occurs, for example, when single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are to be genotyped using a universal DNA tag array. The problem o...

It is shown that structural similarity between proteins can be decided well with much less information than what is used in common similarity measures. The full C representation c...
We develop techniques to estimate the statistical significance of gap-free alignments between two genomic DNA sequences, using human-mouse alignments as an example. The sequences ...
Abstract. There have been many widely used genome rearrangement models, such as reversals, HannenhalliPevzner, and double-cut and join. Though each one can be precisely defined, t...
