Likelihood-free inference of phylogenetic tree posterior distributions

Luc Blassel, Noémie Sauvage, Pierre Barrat-Charlaix +3

Phylogenetic inference, the task of reconstructing how related sequences evolved from common ancestors, is a central objective in evolutionary genomics. The current state-of-the-ar…

Largest planar graphs of diameter and fixed maximum degree -- connection with fractional matchings

Antoine Dailly, Sasha Darmon, Ugo Giocanti +2

The degree diameter problem asks for the maximum possible number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree and diameter . In this paper, we focus on planar graphs of diameter…

The expensive son hypothesis

Lucas Invernizzi, Jean-françois Lemaître, Mathieu Douhard

In its initial form, the expensive son hypothesis postulates that sons from male-biased sexually dimorphic species require more food during growth than daughters, which ultimately…

Inner ear morphology in wild versus laboratory house mice

Sabrina Renaud, Léa Amar, Pascale Chevret +4

The semicircular canals of the inner ear are involved in balance and velocity control. Being crucial to ensure efficient mobility, their morphology exhibits an evolutionary conserv…

Complexity of the Swap Median and Swap Closest Problems

Luís Cunha, Thiago Lopes, Arnaud Mary

Genome rearrangement distances provide a combinatorial framework for comparing genomes represented as permutations. Although the swap distance between two permutations is polynomia…

Enumeration of minimal transversals of hypergraphs of bounded VC-dimension

Arnaud Mary

We consider the problem of enumerating all minimal transversals (also called minimal hitting sets) of a hypergraph . An equivalent formulation of this problem known as…

Zero-inflation in the Multivariate Poisson Lognormal Family

Bastien Batardière, Julien Chiquet, François Gindraud +1

Analyzing high-dimensional count data is a challenge and statistical model-based approaches provide an adequate and efficient framework that preserves explainability. The (multivar…

FAIR Data Pipeline: provenance-driven data management for traceable scientific workflows

Sonia Natalie Mitchell, Andrew Lahiff, Nathan Cummings +35

Modern epidemiological analyses to understand and combat the spread of disease depend critically on access to, and use of, data. Rapidly evolving data, such as data streams changin…

Neuronal Network Inference and Membrane Potential Model using Multivariate Hawkes Processes

Anna Bonnet, Charlotte Dion, François Gindraud +1

In this work, we propose to catch the complexity of the membrane potential's dynamic of a motoneuron between its spikes, taking into account the spikes from other neurons around. O…

Quantifying the overall effect of biotic interactions on species distributions along environmental gradients

Marc Ohlmann, Catherine Matias, Giovanni Poggiato +3

Separating environmental effects from those of interspecific interactions on species distributions has always been a central objective of community ecology. Despite years of effort…

Uniform Deconvolution for Poisson Point Processes

Anna Bonnet, Claire Lacour, Franck Picard +1

We focus on the estimation of the intensity of a Poisson process in the presence of a uniform noise. We propose a kernel-based procedure fully calibrated in theory and practice. We…

Convolutional Kernel Networks for Graph-Structured Data

Dexiong Chen, Laurent Jacob, Julien Mairal

We introduce a family of multilayer graph kernels and establish new links between graph convolutional neural networks and kernel methods. Our approach generalizes convolutional ker…

Antioxidant capacity is repeatable across years but does not consistently correlate with a marker of peroxidation in a free-living passerine bird

Charlotte Récapet, Mathilde Arrivé, Blandine Doligez +1

Oxidative stress occurs when reactive oxygen species (ROS) exceed antioxidant defences, which can have deleterious effects on cell function, health and survival. Therefore, organis…

Probabilistic Count Matrix Factorization for Single Cell Expression Data Analysis

Ghislain Durif, Laurent Modolo, Jeff E. Mold +2

The development of high throughput single-cell sequencing technologies now allows the investigation of the population level diversity of cellular transcriptomes. This diversity has…

Gene tree reconciliation including transfers with replacement is hard and FPT

Damir Hasic, Eric Tannier

Phylogenetic trees illustrate the evolutionary history of genes and species. In most cases, although genes evolve along with the species they belong to, a species tree and gene tre…

Token Jumping in minor-closed classes

Nicolas Bousquet, Arnaud Mary, Aline Parreau

Given two -independent sets and of a graph , one can ask if it is possible to transform the one into the other in such a way that, at any step, we replace one vertex…

Gene tree species tree reconciliation with gene conversion

Damir Hasic, Eric Tannier

Gene tree/species tree reconciliation is a recent decisive progress in phylo-genetic methods, accounting for the possible differences between gene histories and species histories.…

Simulation based estimation of branching models for LTR retrotransposons

Serge Moulin, Nicolas Seux, Stéphane Chrétien +2

Motivation: LTR retrotransposons are mobile elements that are able, like retroviruses, to copy and move inside eukaryotic genomes. In the present work, we propose a branching model…
