Approximating the double-cut-and-join distance between unsigned genomes

<p>Abstract</p> <p>In this paper we study the problem of sorting unsigned genomes by double-cut-and-join operations, where genomes allow a mix of linear and circular chromosomes to be present. First, we formulate an equivalent optimization problem, called maximum cycle/path decompo...
