Joining up Physical and Mental Health The case for a new approach in policies and services

The interconnectedness of physical and mental health is reflected in the origins of the word ‘health’ itself, which is derived from the Old English word ‘hael’, meaning ‘whole.’ The Old English meaning implies that a person who was healthy was ‘whole.’ The ancient Romans understood this concept. The Latin phrase ‘mens sana in corpore sana’, which means ‘a healthy mind in a healthy body’ has bee...

Heuristics for Speeding Up Neighbour Joining

The neighbour joining method is a distance based method for constructing evolutionary trees [2]. Conceptually, it starts out with a star-formed graph where each leaf corresponds to a species, and iteratively picks two nodes adjacent to the root and joins them, by inserting a new node between the root and the two selected nodes. When joining nodes, the method selects the node pair i; j that mini...

Speeding Up Neighbour-Joining Tree Construction

A widely used method for constructing phylogenetic trees is the neighbour-joining method of Saitou and Nei. We develope heuristics for speeding up the neighbour-joining method which generate the same phylogenetic trees as the original method. All heuristics are based on using a quad-tree to guide the search for the next pair of nodes to join, but differ in the information stored in quad-tree no...
