Consensus Ranking with Signed Permutations

Abstract

Signed permutations (also known as the hyperoctahedral group) are used in modeling genome rearrangements. The algorithmic problems they raise are computationally demanding when not NP-hard. This paper presents a tractable algorithm for learning consensus ranking between signed permutations under the inversion distance. This can be extended to estimate a natural class of exponential models over the group of signed permutations. We investigate experimentally the efficiency of our algorithm for modeling data generated by random reversals.
