چکیده
Phylogenies are useful for organizing knowledge of biological diversity, for structuring classifications, and for providing knowledge of events that occurred during evolution. Different phylogenetic reconstruction techniques are available. In this paper Distance based technique is used. Distance measure is an important issue in phylogenetic analysis. Traditional approaches are time-consuming due to the fact that they require multiple sequence alignment, while the K-tuple distance is easy to compute and has been used in phylogenetic tree reconstruction. Based on this Ktuple distance, a genetic algorithm is proposed to find a new F-tuple distance measure which takes into account the position of occurrence of tuples and instead of considering difference, similarities between the sequences are considered. The K-tuple distance approach is not effective for set of sequences which are almost identical where as F-tuple distance is useful for constructing phylogenetic tree for set of identical sequences. This novel approach is capable of efficiently building phylogenetic trees and is less computational intensive.

متن کاملA Mixed Integer Programming Approach to Optimal Feeder Routing for Tree-Based Distribution System: A Case Study
A genetic algorithm is proposed to optimize a tree-structured power distribution network considering optimal cable sizing. For minimizing the total cost of the network, a mixed-integer programming model is presented determining the optimal sizes of cables with minimized location-allocation cost. For designing the distribution lines in a power network, the primary factors must be considered as m...

متن کاملA Novel Technique for Steganography Method Based on Improved Genetic Algorithm Optimization in Spatial Domain
This paper devotes itself to the study of secret message delivery using cover image and introduces a novel steganographic technique based on genetic algorithm to find a near-optimum structure for the pair-wise least-significant-bit (LSB) matching scheme. A survey of the related literatures shows that the LSB matching method developed by Mielikainen, employs a binary function to reduce the numbe...
متن کاملA knowledge-based NSGA-II approach for scheduling in virtual manufacturing cells
This paper considers the job scheduling problem in virtual manufacturing cells (VMCs) with the goal of minimizing two objectives namely, makespan and total travelling distance. To solve this problem two algorithms are proposed: traditional non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) and knowledge-based non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (KBNSGA-II). The difference between these algor...
