Cluster detection by lifting with application to phylogenetics

In this thesis, we propose a new algorithm which automatically detects the number of clusters in a tree structure data set by denoising some generalized node values in the tree using lifting “one coefficient at a time” (LOCAAT) algorithm introduced by Jansen et al. (2001). Our algorithm can be appli...
