Background: Profile-profile methods have been used for some years now to detect and align homologous proteins. The best such methods use information from the background distributi...
Background: Most gene finders score candidate gene models with state-based methods, typically HMMs, by combining local properties (coding potential, splice donor and acceptor patt...
