Multiple UPGMA and Neighbor-joining Trees and the Performance of Some Computer Packages [PDF]
*Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Brussels; and TDepartments of Biology and SBiochemistry, University of Antwerp Although the unweighted pair-group method using arithmetic averages (UPGMA) and neighbor-joining (NJ) algo- rithms are designed to produce single trees, they may derive more than one topology from a single matrix, depending on ...

MGUPGMA: A Fast UPGMA Algorithm With Multiple Graphics Processing Units Using NCCL [PDF]
A phylogenetic tree is a visual diagram of the relationship between a set of biological species. The scientists usually use it to analyze many characteristics of the species. The distance-matrix methods, such as Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean and Neighbor Joining, construct a phylogenetic tree by calculating pairwise genetic ...

Polyhedral combinatorics of UPGMA cones [PDF]
Distance-based methods such as UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean) continue to play a significant role in phylogenetic research. We use polyhedral combinatorics to analyze the natural subdivision of the positive orthant induced by classifying the input vectors according to tree topologies returned by the algorithm.

A Comparative Analysis of Progressive Multiple Sequence Alignment Approaches using UPGMA and Neighbor Join Based Guide Trees [PDF]
Multiple sequence alignment is increasingly important to bioinformatics, with several applications ranging from phylogenetic analyses to domain identification. There are several ways to perform multiple sequence alignment, an important way of which is the progressive alignment approach studied in this work.
