One of the most commonly used tools by computational biologists is some form of sequence alignment. Heuristic alignment algorithms developed for speed and their multiple results s...
Background: Since the publication of the first draft of the human genome in 2000, bioinformatic data have been accumulating at an overwhelming pace. Currently, more than 3 million...

The Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model (HHMM) is a well formalized tool suitable to model complex patterns in long temporal or spatial sequences. Even if effective algorithms are ava...
Background: Phylogenetic methods which do not rely on multiple sequence alignments are important tools in inferring trees directly from completely sequenced genomes. Here, we exte...
