abstract: "<p>The contents of this repository is the source code for the paper&nbsp;"Constructing Phylogenetic Networks via Cherry Picking and Machine Learning" by Giulia Bernardini, Leo van Iersel, Esther Julien, and Leen Stougie. The research question for this project is the following: "Can machine learning increase the performance of a heuristic to construct phylogenetic networks given a set of phylogenetic trees with the same set of taxa?" This question has been answered by formalizing a method that uses ML and so-called method "cherry picking", and performing numerical experiments based on python code.</p>"
