Abstract

The parsimony haplotyping problem was shown to be NP-hard when each genotype had k <= 3 ambiguous positions, while the case for k <= 2 was open. In this paper, we show that the case for k <= 2 is polynomial. and we give approximation and FPT algorithms for the general case of k >= 0 ambiguous positions.
