An Optimal Algorithm for Building the Majority Rule Consensus Tree
[chapter]
2013
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
A deterministic algorithm for building the majority rule consensus tree of an input collection of conflicting phylogenetic trees with identical leaf labels is presented. ...
Its worst-case running time is O(nk), where n is the size of the leaf label set and k is the number of input phylogenetic trees. This is optimal since the input size is Ω(nk). ...
An Optimal Algorithm for the Majority Rule Consensus Tree This eliminates those candidates that do not occur in more than k 2 of the trees in S. ...

2013
BMC Evolutionary Biology
Methods: To tackle this problem, we hereby describe a new method for inferring and representing alternative (reticulate) evolutionary histories of species as an explicit weighted consensus network which ...
Conclusions: Our weighted consensus network inference method allows one to infer, visualize and validate statistically major conflicting signals induced by the mechanisms of reticulate evolution. ...

Multipolar Consensus for Phylogenetic Trees
2006
Systematic Biology
However, in the case of heterogeneous collections of trees, the resulting consensus may be poorly resolved (strict consensus, majority-rule consensus...), or may perform arbitrary choices among mutually ...
Collections of phylogenetic trees are usually summarized using consensus methods. These methods build a single tree, supposed to be representative of the collection. ...

Online Consensus and Agreement of Phylogenetic Trees
[chapter]
2004
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Consensus and agreement trees are common such representations. Using existing static algorithms to produce these trees increases an already lengthy computational time substantially. ...
In this paper we present efficient online algorithms for computing strict and majority consensi and the maximum agreement subtree. ...

Polynomial-Time Algorithms for Building a Consensus MUL-Tree
2012
Journal of Computational Biology
for building a majority rule consensus MUL-tree for the special case where every leaf label occurs at most twice. ...
We also show that, although it is NP-hard to find a majority rule consensus MUL-tree in general, the variant that we call the singular majority rule consensus MUL-tree can be constructed efficiently whenever ...

Parallel computation of phylogenetic consensus trees
2010
Procedia Computer Science
In this paper we focus on a post-analysis task in reconstructing very large trees, specifically the step of building (extended) majority rules consensus trees from a collection of equally plausible trees ...
In the field of phylogenetic inference (reconstruction of evolutionary trees from molecular sequence data), scalability is becoming an increasingly important issue for operations other than the tree reconstruction ...
The majority rules (MR) consensus tree consists of the bipartitions that occur in more than half of the input trees. ...

Improved Algorithms for Constructing Consensus Trees
[chapter]
2013
Proceedings of the Twenty-Fourth Annual ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms
Many different types of consensus trees have been proposed in the literature; three of the most well-known and widely used ones are the majority rule consensus tree, the loose consensus tree, and the greedy ...
Given k phylogenetic trees with n leaves each and with identical leaf label sets, our algorithms run in O(nk log k) time (majority rule consensus tree), O(nk) time (loose consensus tree), and O(n 2 k) ...

The metapopulation genetic algorithm: An efficient solution for the problem of large phylogeny estimation
2002
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Here, we report on a heuristic approach, the metapopulation genetic algorithm, involving several populations of trees that are forced to cooperate in the search for the optimal tree. ...
Within each population, trees are subjected to evaluation, selection, and mutation events, which are directed by using inter-population consensus information. ...

A new fast method for inferring multiple consensus trees using k-medoids

BMC Evolutionary Biology
The traditional consensus approach yields a single consensus tree. We use the popular k-medoids partitioning algorithm to divide a given set of trees into several clusters of trees. ...
Results: We describe a new fast method for inferring multiple consensus trees from a given set of phylogenetic trees (i.e. additive trees or X-trees) defined on the same set of species (i.e. objects or ...
