An Incremental Phylogenetic Tree Algorithm Based On Repeated Insertions Of Species, Peter Revesz, Zhiqiang Li
CSE Conference and Workshop Papers
In this paper, we introduce a new phylogenetic tree algorithm that generates phylogenetic trees by repeatedly inserting species one-by-one. The incremental phylogenetic tree algorithm can work on proteins or DNA sequences. Computer experiments show that the new algorithm is better than the commonly used UPGMA and Neighbor Joining algorithms.
