The Sampling Distributions and Covariance Matrix of Phylogenetic Spectra
We extend recent advances in computing variance-covariance matrices from genetic distances to a sequence method of phylogenetic analysis. These matrices, together with other statistical properties of corrected sequence spectra, are studied as a foundation for more powerful and testable methods in phylogenetics. We start with 8, a vector of the proportion of sites in a sequence of length c showi...
متن کاملA Steiner Tree, Substitution Matrix Method for Reconstructing Phylogenetic Trees
Evolutionary theory implies that existing or extinct organisms are descended from a common ancestor. Hence, given a set of organisms, a phylogenetic tree can be reconstructed showing the evolutionary relationships between the biological organisms in the set. A commonly used method for the reconstruction of phylogenetic trees is the Distance Matrix (DM) method, which tends to be faster than the ...
متن کاملReconstructing an Ultrametric Galled Phylogenetic Network from a Distance Matrix
Given a distance matrix M that specifies the pairwise evolutionary distances between n species, the phylogenetic tree reconstruction problem asks for an edge-weighted phylogenetic tree that satisfies M, if one exists. We study some extensions of this problem to rooted phylogenetic networks. Our main result is an O(n(2) log n)-time algorithm for determining whether there is an ultrametric galled...
متن کاملTask Scheduling Algorithm Using Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES) in Cloud Computing
The cloud computing is considered as a computational model which provides the uses requests with resources upon any demand and needs.The need for planning the scheduling of the user's jobs has emerged as an important challenge in the field of cloud computing. It is mainly due to several reasons, including ever-increasing advancements of information technology and an increase of applications and...
متن کاملEvolution of Genetic Variance-Covariance Structure
One of the features of organisms that makes the study of biology so compelling is their apparent complexity. Molecular, cellular, developmental, physiological, neurological, and behavioral systems are each fascinating in and of themselves, but it is their interaction that generates what we see as the organism as a whole. By necessity, biologists have a tendency to break down organisms into thei...
