N-gram analysis of 970 microbial organisms reveals presence of biological language models
Background: It has been suggested previously that genome and proteome sequences show characteristics typical of natural-language texts such as “signature-style” word usage ind...

Inverse Sequence Alignment from Partial Examples
When aligning biological sequences, the choice of parameter values for the alignment scoring function is critical. Small changes in gap penalties, for example, can yield radically ...

Significance Of inter-species matches when evolutionary rate varies
We develop techniques to estimate the statistical significance of gap-free alignments between two genomic DNA sequences, using human-mouse alignments as an example. The sequences ...

Pattern statistics on Markov chains and sensitivity to parameter estimation
Background: In order to compute pattern statistics in computational biology a Markov model is commonly used to take into account the sequence composition. Usually its parameter mu...
