Simultaneously Building and Reconciling a Synteny Tree
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract We present FullSynesth, a tree reconciliation algorithm predicting the evolution of a set of homologous genomic regions or syntenies, inside a species tree. The considered evolutionary model involves segmental events (i.e. acting on multiple genes) including duplications (D), losses (L), synteny fissions and transfers possibly going through unsampled or extinct species. Formally, given a set of syntenies in a set of genomes and a set $$\mathcal {G}$$ G of consistent gene trees for the gene families composing the syntenies, the problem is to infer a most parsimonious evolutionary history explaining the observed gene trees and syntenies given a species tree. The problem is NP-hard for the DL distance. FullSynesth is based on Synesth explicating the evolution of a set of syntenies given a single synteny tree, which can be obtained from $$\mathcal {G}$$ G by selecting an “optimal” supertree. Rather than trying each supertree in turn, FullSynesth is based on a two-in-one approach simultaneously building and reconciling a synteny supertree. The running time of this algorithm is exponential in the number of gene trees rather than in the size of gene trees. We show on simulated datasets that FullSynesth significantly improves the running time of Synesth applied to each possible supertree. An implementation of the algorithm is available at: http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~mabrouk/ .

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
