On the transformation of MinHash-based uncorrected distances into proper evolutionary distances for phylogenetic inference [version 1; peer review: 3 approved]

Recently developed MinHash-based techniques were proven successful in quickly estimating the level of similarity between large nucleotide sequences. This article discusses their usage and limitations in practice to approximating uncorrected distances between genomes, and transforming these pairwise...
