Towards distance-based phylogenetic inference in average-case linear-time
Abstract : Computing genetic evolution distances among a set of taxa dominates the running time of many phylogenetic inference methods. Most of genetic evolution distance definitions rely, even if indirectly , on computing the pairwise Hamming distance among sequences or profiles. We propose here an average-case linear-time algorithm to compute pairwise Hamming distances among a set of taxa under a given distance threshold. This paper includes both a theoretical analysis and extensive experimental results concerning the proposed algorithm. We further show how this algorithm can be successfully integrated into a widely used phylogenetic inference method.
