The goal is to optimize the tree topology and the criterion used by the algorithm is the error between the distance matrix derived from the tree and the original distance matrix. The working distance matrix used to build the tree is derived from the original distance matrix plus a correction matrix as explained in figure 2. This correction matrix is obtained by the genetic algorithm described in the paper. So the process is:
- Generate a working distance matrix using genetic algorithm (either directly or as original + correction)
- Build a tree with the working distance matrix
- Calculate a new distance matrix according to Fitch and Margoliash (making use of the original distance matrix)
- Compute error between new distance matrix and original one.

i can't add an image here but i put paper link it is fig 1 in this paper .. please help me
Where is the image ???????

You've posted a link to the paper as an answer to your own question. Please refrain from doing so, as it A) Isn't an answer to your question (it's not at answer at all), B) Belongs in your question, C) Already is posted in your question and several comments and D) Makes it appear as this question has an upvoted (i.e. good) answer, which makes it a lot less likely for people to view your question.
I moved it to a comment.
Perhaps you should put a bit of a description of what the image is about in your question and title. That way people know straight away if they might be able to help you, rather than having to click through your question and into the paper.
The text explains it pretty well so it would be useful if you could precise what it is that you don't understand.
well , i need to understand it what is the difference between original distance Matrix,calculated distance Matrix ??
deeply .. what is the meaning of fig 1 in this paper ??
