An enhanced RNA alignment benchmark for sequence alignment programs
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...

Local Alignment of RNA Sequences with Arbitrary Scoring Schemes
Abstract. Local similarity is an important tool in comparative analysis of biological sequences, and is therefore well studied. In particular, the Smith-Waterman technique and its ...

Dinucleotide controlled null models for comparative RNA gene prediction
Background: Comparative prediction of RNA structures can be used to identify functional noncoding RNAs in genomic screens. It was shown recently by Babak et al. [BMC Bioinformatic...

Locality and Gaps in RNA Comparison
Locality is an important and well-studied notion in comparative analysis of biological sequences. Similarly, taking into account affine gap penalties when calculating biological ...
