Effective p-value computations using Finite Markov Chain Imbedding (FMCI): application to local score and to pattern statistics
The technique of Finite Markov Chain Imbedding (FMCI) is a classical approach to complex combinatorial problems related to sequences. In order to get efficient algorithms, it is k...
