Fixed-Parameter Tractability of the Maximum Agreement Supertree Problem
[chapter]
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Given a ground set L of labels and a collection of trees whose leaves are bijectively labelled by some elements of L, the Maximum Agreement Supertree problem (SMAST) is the following: find a tree T on ...
The problem finds applications in phylogenetics, databases and data mining. In this paper we focus on the parameterized complexity of this NP-hard problem. ...
The SMAST problem consists in finding an agreement supertree containing the maximum number of labels from L. This problem is NP-hard in general as it generalizes the MAST problem [8] . ...

Maximum agreement and compatible supertrees
2007
Journal of Discrete Algorithms
SMAST is shown to be W[2]-hard when the considered parameter is the number of input leaves that have to be removed to obtain the agreement of the input trees. A similar result holds for SMCT. ...
In this paper, we propose extensions of these problems to the context of supertree inference, where input trees have non-identical leaf sets. ...
MAST and MCT are known to be fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) in p, the smallest number of leaves to remove from the input set of leaves such that the input trees agree. ...

Towards a Data Reduction for the Minimum Flip Supertree Problem
[article]
2011
arXiv
pre-print
In computational phylogenetics, the problem of constructing a supertree of a given set of rooted input trees can be formalized in different ways, to cope with contradictory information in the input. ...
We consider the Minimum Flip Supertree problem, where the input trees are transformed into a 0/1/? ...
Finding a kernel for the MFST problem, on the other hand, is related to the open question whether MFST is parameterized tractable. I M (v) := {t : M [t, v] = 1} be the set of '1'-indices in column v. ...

Although calculating the rooted SPR distance between a pair of trees is NP-hard, our new maximum agreement forestbased methods can reconcile trees with hundreds of taxa and > 50 transfers in fractions ...
We present the first method to construct supertrees by using the subtree prune-and-regraft (SPR) distance as an optimality criterion. ...

SUPERTRIPLETS: a triplet-based supertree approach to phylogenomics

Bioinformatics
A recurrent problem is to reconcile the various phylogenies built from different genomic sequences into a single one. ...
This task is generally conducted by a two-step approach whereby a binary representation of the initial trees is first inferred and then a maximum parsimony (MP) analysis is performed on it. ...
