But there are some long-standing challenges in these methods, including requirement of huge computer memory and CPU time, and existence of duplicate computations. In this article, we address these challenges with the idea of compressed vector, fingerprint and scalable memory management. With these ideas we developed the DLTree algorithm for efficient implementation of the dynamical language model and whole genome-based phylogenetic analysis. The DLTree algorithm was compared with other alignment-free tools, demonstrating that it is more efficient and accurate for phylogeny reconstruction.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Availability and Implementation<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The DLTree algorithm is freely available at http:\/\/dltree.xtu.edu.cn<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Supplementary information<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btx158","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,3,18]],"date-time":"2017-03-18T12:47:27Z","timestamp":1489841247000},"page":"2214-2215","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["DLTree: efficient and accurate phylogeny reconstruction using the dynamical language method"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Qi","family":"Wu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Intelligent Computing and Information Processing of Ministry of Education, Hunan Key Laboratory for Computation and Simulation in Science and Engineering, Xiangtan University, Hunan, China"}]},{"given":"Zu-Guo","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Intelligent Computing and Information Processing of Ministry of Education, Hunan Key Laboratory for Computation and Simulation in Science and Engineering, Xiangtan University, Hunan, China"}]},{"given":"Jianyi","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mathematical Sciences, Nankai University, Tianjin, China"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,3,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023051506473533200_btx158-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"5155","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.83.14.5155","article-title":"A measure of the similarity of sets of sequences not requiring sequence alignment","volume":"83","author":"Blaisdell","year":"1986","journal-title":"Proc.
