A memory-efficient dynamic programming algorithm for optimal alignment of a sequence to an RNA secondary structure
Background: Covariance models (CMs) are probabilistic models of RNA secondary structure, analogous to profile hidden Markov models of linear sequence. The dynamic programming algo...

Local sequence alignments statistics: deviations from Gumbel statistics in the rare-event tail
Background: The optimal score for ungapped local alignments of infinitely long random sequences is known to follow a Gumbel extreme value distribution. Less is known about the imp...
