The triangles method to build X -trees from incomplete distance matrices

Alain Guénoche, Bruno Leclerc (2001)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

Similarity:

A method to infer X -trees (valued trees having X as set of leaves) from incomplete distance arrays (where some entries are uncertain or unknown) is described. It allows us to build an unrooted tree using only 2 n -3 distance values between the n elements of X , if they fulfill some explicit conditions. This construction is based on the mapping between X -tree and a weighted generalized 2-tree spanning X .

On the structure of path-like trees

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

We study the structure of path-like trees. In order to do this, we introduce a set of trees that we call expandable trees. In this paper we also generalize the concept of path-like trees and we call such generalization generalized path-like trees. As in the case of path-like trees, generalized path-like trees, have very nice labeling properties.

On a matching distance between rooted phylogenetic trees

Damian Bogdanowicz, Krzysztof Giaro (2013)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The Robinson-Foulds (RF) distance is the most popular method of evaluating the dissimilarity between phylogenetic trees. In this paper, we define and explore in detail properties of the Matching Cluster (MC) distance, which can be regarded as a refinement of the RF metric for rooted trees. Similarly to RF, MC operates on clusters of compared trees, but the distance evaluation is more complex. Using the graph theoretic approach based on a minimum-weight perfect matching in bipartite graphs,...
