We present an extension of Felsenstein's algorithm to indel models defined on entire sequences, without the need to condition on one multiple alignment. The algorithm makes use of a generalization from probabilistic substitution matrices to…

We consider the phylogenetic tree reconstruction problem with insertions and deletions (indels). Phylogenetic algorithms proceed under a model where sequences evolve down the model tree, and given sequences at the leaves, the problem is to…

The inability to resolve deep node relationships of highly divergent/rapidly evolving protein families is a major factor that stymies evolutionary studies. In this manuscript, we propose a Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) independent…

In evolutionary biology, the speciation history of living organisms is represented graphically by a phylogeny, that is, a rooted tree whose leaves correspond to current species and branchings indicate past speciation events. Phylogenies are…

Evolutionary modeling applications are the best way to provide full information to support in-depth understanding of evaluation of organisms. These applications mainly depend on identifying the evolutionary history of existing organisms and…

We present an efficient phylogenetic reconstruction algorithm allowing insertions and deletions which provably achieves a sequence-length requirement (or sample complexity) growing polynomially in the number of taxa. Our algorithm is…

Phylogenetic tree reconstruction is traditionally based on multiple sequence alignments (MSAs) and heavily depends on the validity of this information bottleneck. With increasing sequence divergence, the quality of MSAs decays quickly.…

Computational phylogenetics has become an established tool in historical linguistics, with many language families now analyzed using likelihood-based inference. However, standard approaches rely on expert-annotated cognate sets, which are…

Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) has been one of the most important problems in bioinformatics for more decades and it is still heavily examined by many mathematicians and biologists. However, mostly because of the practical motivation of…

Multiple Sequences Alignment (MSA) of biological sequences is a fundamental problem in computational biology due to its critical significance in wide ranging applications including haplotype reconstruction, sequence homology, phylogenetic…

Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a fundamental and ubiquitous technique in bioinformatics used to infer related residues among biological sequences. Thus alignment accuracy is crucial to a vast range of analyses, often in ways difficult…

Recent generative learning models applied to protein multiple sequence alignment (MSA) datasets include simple and interpretable physics-based Potts covariation models and other machine learning models such as MSA-Transformer (MSA-T). The…

Protein language models have excelled in a variety of tasks, ranging from structure prediction to protein engineering. However, proteins are highly diverse in functions and structures, and current state-of-the-art models including the…

Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) is one of the most computationally intensive tasks in Computational Biology. Existing best known solutions for multiple sequence alignment take several hours (in some cases days) of computation time to…

Sequence alignment is common nowadays as it is used in many fields to determine how closely two sequences are related and at times to see how little they differ. In computational biology / Bioinformatics, there are many algorithms developed…

Analyzing the relation between a set of biological sequences can help to identify and understand the evolutionary history of these sequences and the functional relations among them. Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) is the main obstacle to…

Motivation: Word-based or `alignment-free' methods for phylogeny reconstruction are much faster than traditional approaches, but they are generally less accurate. Most of these methods calculate pairwise distances for a set of input…

We propose an approach for multiple sequence alignment (MSA) derived from the dynamic time warping viewpoint and recent techniques of curve synchronization developed in the context of functional data analysis. Starting from pairwise…

Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) data play a crucial role in the study of protein mutations, with contact prediction being a notable application. Existing methods are often model-based or algorithmic and typically do not incorporate…

Motivation: The multiple sequence alignment (MSA) problem has been extensively studied, with numerous approaches developed over recent years. With the rapid growth of sequence data, there is an increasing need for fast and accurate MSA…
