Predicting the evolution of syntenies—an algorithmic review

N El-Mabrouk - Algorithms, 2021 - mdpi.com
Syntenies are genomic segments of consecutive genes identified by a certain conservation
in gene content and order. The notion of conservation may vary from one definition to …

Gene order alignment on trees with multiorthoalign

B Benzaid, N El-Mabrouk - BMC genomics, 2014 - Springer
We relate the comparison of gene orders to an alignment problem. Our evolutionary model
accounts for both rearrangement and content-modifying events. We present a heuristic …

Fast median computation for symmetric, orthogonal matrices under the rank distance

J Meidanis, L Chindelevitch - Linear algebra and its applications, 2021 - Elsevier
Biological genomes can be represented as square, symmetric, orthogonal, 0-1 matrices. It
