The function of an unknown biological sequence can often be accurately inferred by identifying sequences homologous to the original sequence. Given a query set of known homologs, ...
Background: Sequence comparison by alignment is a fundamental tool of molecular biology. In this paper we show how a number of sequence comparison tasks, including the detection o...

Background: The number of k-words shared between two sequences is a simple and effcient alignment-free sequence comparison method. This statistic, D2, has been used for the cluste...
One of the major problems in genomic field is to perform sequence comparison on DNA and protein sequences. Executing sequence comparison on the DNA and protein data is a computatio...

A variety of heterogenous data sources is available in the field of molecular biology. Our focus lies on the biological sequence data, i. e. data maintained in collections like EM...
Multiple sequence alignment is a fundamental problem in computational biology. Because of its notorious difficulties, aligning sequences within a constant band (c-diagonal) is a ...
We give an efficient protocol for sequence comparisons of the edit-distance kind, such that neither party reveals anything about their private sequence to the other party (other t...
