Constructing Phylogenetic Networks via Cherry Picking and Machine Learning
Giulia Bernardini, Leo van Iersel, Esther Julien +1
Combining a set of phylogenetic trees into a single phylogenetic network that explains all of them is a fundamental challenge in evolutionary studies. Existing methods are computat…
A short note on exponential-time algorithms for hybridization number
Leo van Iersel, Steven Kelk, Nela Lekic +1
In this short note we prove that, given two (not necessarily binary) rooted phylogenetic trees T_1, T_2 on the same set of taxa X, where |X|=n, the hybridization number of T_1 and…
A Realistic Model under which the Genetic Code is Optimal
Harry Buhrman, Peter T. S. van der Gulik, Gunnar W. Klau +3
The genetic code has a high level of error robustness. Using values of hydrophobicity scales as a proxy for amino acid character, and the Mean Square measure as a function quantify…
Constructing level-2 phylogenetic networks from triplets
Leo van Iersel, Judith Keijsper, Steven Kelk +1
Jansson and Sung showed that, given a dense set of input triplets T (representing hypotheses about the local evolutionary relationships of triplets of species), it is possible to d…
