In this paper we present a confidence measure for word alignment based on the posterior probability of alignment links. We introduce sentence alignment confidence measure and alig...
DNA sequence alignment is a very important problem in bioinformatics. The algorithm proposed by Smith-Waterman (SW) is an exact method that obtains optimal local alignments in qua...

Background: The performance of alignment programs is traditionally tested on sets of protein sequences, of which a reference alignment is known. Conclusions drawn from such protei...
Background: High quality multiple alignments are crucial in the transfer of annotation from one genome to another. Multiple alignment methods strive to achieve ever increasing lev...
Abstract. This paper proposes a novel algorithm for complete exact patternmatching focusing the specificities of protein sequences (alphabet of 20 symbols) but, also highly efficie...
