Improving pairwise sequence alignment accuracy using near-optimal protein sequence alignments
Background: While the pairwise alignments produced by sequence similarity searches are a powerful tool for identifying homologous proteins - proteins that share a common ancestor ...

Learning Models for Aligning Protein Sequences with Predicted Secondary Structure
Accurately aligning distant protein sequences is notoriously difficult. A recent approach to improving alignment accuracy is to use additional information such as predicted seconda...

MTRAP: Pairwise sequence alignment algorithm by a new measure based on transition probability between two consecutive pairs of r
Background: Sequence alignment is one of the most important techniques to analyze biological systems. It is also true that the alignment is not complete and we have to develop it ...
