Abstract

Data clustering is described for determining related components of the data. In one example, information on biomolecules may be clustered into groups in which the biomolecular data in a clustered group may indicate data that shares a relationship. For example, monomers of a protein molecule or a nucleic acid molecule may be mapped to an evolutionary or phylogenetic tree. Candidate groupings of the information may be obtained based on evolutionary relationships among sequences corresponding to the molecules.
