The problem of reconstructing full sibling groups from DNA marker data remains a significant challenge for computational biology. A recently published heuristic algorithm based on Mendelian exclusion rules and the Simpson index was successfully applied to the full sibship reconstruction (FSR) problem. However, the so-called SIMPSON algorithm has an unknown complexity measure, questioning its applicability range.
