A tandem repeat is a sequence of two or more contiguous, approximate copies of a pattern. Tandem repeats occur in the genomes of both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. They ar...
An efficient algorithm is presented for detecting approximate tandem repeats in genomic sequences. The algorithm is based on a flexible statistical model which allows a wide range...

Abstract. Traditional sequence comparison by alignment applies a mutation model comprising two events, substitutions and indels (insertions or deletions) of single positions (SI). ...

Background: Biological sequence repeats arranged in tandem patterns are widespread in DNA and proteins. While many software tools have been designed to detect DNA tandem repeats (...
Algorithm development for comparing and aligning biological sequences has, until recently, been based on the SI model of mutational events which assumes that modi cation of sequen...
