Description: Speeding up the estimation of phylogenetic trees from sequences
VeryFastTree is a highly efficient implementation inspired by the FastTree-2
tool, designed to expedite the inference of approximately-maximum-likelihood
phylogenetic trees from nucleotide or protein sequence alignments. It is an
optimized implementation designed to accelerate the estimation of phylogenies
for large alignments. By leveraging parallelization and vectorization
strategies, VeryFastTree significantly improves the performance and
scalability of phylogenetic analysis, allowing it to construct phylogenetic
trees in a fraction of the time previously required.
.
Maintaining the integrity of FastTree-2, VeryFastTree retains the same phases,
methods, and heuristics used for estimating phylogenetic trees. This ensures
that the topological accuracy of the trees produced by VeryFastTree remains
equivalent to that of FastTree-2. Moreover, unlike the parallel version of
FastTree-2, VeryFastTree guarantees deterministic results, eliminating any
potential variations in the output.
.
To facilitate a seamless transition for users, VeryFastTree adopts the exact
same command line arguments as FastTree-2. This means that by simply
substituting FastTree-2 with VeryFastTree, and using the same set of options,
users can significantly enhance the overall performance of their phylogenetic
analyses.
