A genome alignment algorithm based on compression
Background: Traditional genome alignment methods consider sequence alignment as a variation of the string edit distance problem, and perform alignment by matching characters of th...

Alignment Statistics for Long-Range Correlated Genomic Sequences
It is well known that the base composition along eukaryotic genomes is long-range correlated. Here, we investigate the effect of such long-range correlations on alignment score sta...

Searching for evolutionary distant RNA homologs within genomic sequences using partition function posterior probabilities
Background: Identification of RNA homologs within genomic stretches is difficult when pairwise sequence identity is low or unalignable flanking residues are present. In both cases...

Using ESTs to improve the accuracy of de novo gene prediction
Background: ESTs are a tremendous resource for determining the exon-intron structures of genes, but even extensive EST sequencing tends to leave many exons and genes untouched. Ge...
