An alternating least squares approach to inferring phylogenies from pairwise distances.
A computational method is presented for minimizing the weighted sum of squares of the differences between observed and expected pairwise distances between species, where the expectations are generated by an additive tree model. The criteria of Fitch and Margoliash (1967, Science 155:279-284) and Cavalli-Sforza and Edwards (1967, Evolution 21:550-570) are both weighted least squares, with differ...
متن کاملA weighted least-squares approach for inferring phylogenies from incomplete distance matrices
MOTIVATION The problem of phylogenetic inference from datasets including incomplete or uncertain entries is among the most relevant issues in systematic biology. In this paper, we propose a new method for reconstructing phylogenetic trees from partial distance matrices. The new method combines the usage of the four-point condition and the ultrametric inequality with a weighted least-squares app...

متن کاملAn Alternating Least Squares Algorithm with Application to Image Processing
Least Squares (LS) estimation is a classical problem, often arising in practice. When the dimension of the problem is large, the solution may be difficult to obtain, due to complexity reasons. A general way to reduce the complexity is that of breaking the problem in smaller sub-problems. Following this approach, in the paper we introduce an Alternating Least Squares (ALS) algorithm that finds t...
