Supervised multivariate analysis of sequence groups to identify specificity determining residues
Background: Proteins that evolve from a common ancestor can change functionality over time, and it is important to be able identify residues that cause this change. In this paper ...

Scoredist: A simple and robust protein sequence distance estimator
Background: Distance-based methods are popular for reconstructing evolutionary trees thanks to their speed and generality. A number of methods exist for estimating distances from ...

Using Multiple Alignments to Improve Gene Prediction
The multiple species de novo gene prediction problem can be stated as follows: given an alignment of genomic sequences from two or more organisms, predict the location and structur...

Detecting Sporadic Recombination in DNA Alignments with Hidden Markov Models
Conventional phylogenetic tree estimation methods assume that all sites in a DNA multiple alignment have the same evolutionary history. This assumption is violated in data sets fro...

Compression-based classification of biological sequences and structures via the Universal Similarity Metric: experimental assess
Background: Similarity of sequences is a key mathematical notion for Classification and Phylogenetic studies in Biology. It is currently primarily handled using alignments. Howeve...
