Improved Phylogeny Comparisons: Non-Shared Edges Nearest Neighbor Interchanges, and Subtree Transfers
Wing-Kai Hon, Ming-Yang Kao, Tak-Wah Lam +2
The number of the non-shared edges of two phylogenies is a basic measure of the dissimilarity between the phylogenies. The non-shared edges are also the building block for approxim…
Linear-Time Algorithms for Computing Maximum-Density Sequence Segments with Bioinformatics Applications
Michael H. Goldwasser, Ming-Yang Kao, Hsueh-I Lu
We study an abstract optimization problem arising from biomolecular sequence analysis. For a sequence A of pairs (a_i,w_i) for i = 1,..,n and w_i>0, a segment A(i,j) is a consecuti…
Fast Universalization of Investment Strategies with Provably Good Relative Returns
Karhan Akcoglu, Petros Drineas, Ming-Yang Kao
A universalization of a parameterized investment strategy is an online algorithm whose average daily performance approaches that of the strategy operating with the optimal paramete…
