Quarnet inference rules for level-1 networks
Katharine T. Huber, Vincent Moulton, Charles Semple +1
An important problem in phylogenetics is the construction of phylogenetic trees. One way to approach this problem, known as the supertree method, involves inferring a phylogenetic…
UPGMA and the normalized equidistant minimum evolution problem
Vincent Moulton, Andreas Spillner, Taoyang Wu
UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean) is a widely used clustering method. Here we show that UPGMA is a greedy heuristic for the normalized equidistant minimum e…
Treewidth distance on phylogenetic trees
Steven Kelk, Georgios Stamoulis, Taoyang Wu
In this article we study the treewidth of the \emph{display graph}, an auxiliary graph structure obtained from the fusion of phylogenetic (i.e., evolutionary) trees at their leaves…
A cubic-time algorithm for computing the trinet distance between level-1 networks
Vincent Moulton, James Oldman, Taoyang Wu
In evolutionary biology, phylogenetic networks are constructed to represent the evolution of species in which reticulate events are thought to have occurred, such as recombination…
Bounds for phylogenetic network space metrics
Andrew Francis, Katharina Huber, Vincent Moulton +1
Phylogenetic networks are a generalization of phylogenetic trees that allow for representation of reticulate evolution. Recently, a space of unrooted phylogenetic networks was intr…
Binets: fundamental building blocks for phylogenetic networks
Leo van Iersel, Vincent Moulton, Eveline de Swart +1
Phylogenetic networks are a generalization of evolutionary trees that are used by biologists to represent the evolution of organisms which have undergone reticulate evolution. Esse…
