PLAST-ncRNA: Partition function Local Alignment Search Tool for non-coding RNA sequences
Alignment-based programs are valuable tools for finding potential homologs in genome sequences. Previously, it has been shown that partition function posterior probabilities attun...

Searching for evolutionary distant RNA homologs within genomic sequences using partition function posterior probabilities
Background: Identification of RNA homologs within genomic stretches is difficult when pairwise sequence identity is low or unalignable flanking residues are present. In both cases...

Highly Scalable and Accurate Seeds for Subsequence Alignment
We propose a method for finding seeds for the local alignment of two nucleotide sequences. Our method uses randomized algorithms to find approximate seeds. We present a dynamic ...
