A nearest-neighbors network model for sequence data reveals new insight into genotype distribution of a pathogen

Abstract Background Sequence similarity networks are useful for classifying and characterizing biologically important proteins. Threshold-based approaches to similarity network construction using exact distance measures are prohibitively slow to compute and rely on the difficult task of selecting an...
