An O(n) algorithm for finding an optimal position with relative distances in an evolutionary tree is presented in this paper. The optimality of position is defined by minimum incremental distance under L -norm. The algorithm can also be used to solve similar problems with alternative criteria, such as L 1 -norm or minimum tree size. © 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
