A Greedy Algorithm for Aligning DNA Sequences
For aligning DNA sequences that differ only by sequencing errors, or by equivalent errors from other sources, a greedy algorithm can be much faster than traditional dynamic progra...

Local alignment of generalized k-base encoded DNA sequence
Background: DNA sequence comparison is a well-studied problem, in which two DNA sequences are compared using a weighted edit distance. Recent DNA sequencing technologies however o...
