MSAID: multiple sequence alignment based on a measure of information discrepancy
We propose an algorithm of global multiple sequence alignment that is based on a measure of what we call information discrepancy. The algorithm follows a progressive alignment ite...

A multi-expert system for the automatic detection of protein domains from sequence information
We describe a novel method for detecting the domain structure of a protein from sequence information alone. The method is based on analyzing multiple sequence alignments that are ...

Gapped alignment of protein sequence motifs through Monte Carlo optimization of a hidden Markov model
Background: Certain protein families are highly conserved across distantly related organisms and belong to large and functionally diverse superfamilies. The patterns of conservati...

Noisy: Identification of problematic columns in multiple sequence alignments
Motivation: Sequence-based methods for phylogenetic reconstruction from (nucleic acid) sequence data are notoriously plagued by two effects: homoplasies and alignment errors. Larg...

Clustering of protein families into functional subtypes using Relative Complexity Measure with reduced amino acid alphabets
Background: Phylogenetic analysis can be used to divide a protein family into subfamilies in the absence of experimental information. Most phylogenetic analysis methods utilize mu...
