Background: Biological sequence repeats arranged in tandem patterns are widespread in DNA and proteins. While many software tools have been designed to detect DNA tandem repeats (...
Background: Motif discovery aims to detect short, highly conserved patterns in a collection of unaligned DNA or protein sequences. Discriminative motif finding algorithms aim to i...
Background: The use of novel algorithmic techniques is pivotal to many important problems in life science. For example the sequencing of the human genome [1] would not have been p...
Background: Computational discovery of motifs in biomolecular sequences is an established field, with applications both in the discovery of functional sites in proteins and regula...
