Following Zuker (1986), a saturated secondary structure for a given RNA sequence is a secondary structure such that no base pair can be added without violating the definition of s...
Abstract. This paper addresses the problem of aligning multiple sequences of non-coding RNA genes. We approach this problem with the biologically motivated paradigm that scoring of...
Abstract. RNA shapes, introduced by Giegerich et al. (17), provide a useful classification of the branching complexity for RNA secondary structures. In this paper, we derive an exa...
Given an ordered labeled forest F ("the target forest") and an ordered labeled forest G ("the pattern forest"), the most similar subforest problem is to find a ...
