Accurate statistics for local sequence alignment with position-dependent scoring by rare-event sampling
Background: Molecular database search tools need statistical models to assess the significance for the resulting hits. In the classical approach one asks the question how probable...

A General Framework for Local Pairwise Alignment Statistics with Gaps
We present a novel dynamic programming framework that allows one to compute tight upper bounds for the p-values of gapped local alignments in pseudo–polynomial time. Our algorith...

FITBAR: a web tool for the robust prediction of prokaryotic regulons
Background: The binding of regulatory proteins to their specific DNA targets determines the accurate expression of the neighboring genes. The in silico prediction of new binding s...
