Aligning DNA and protein sequences is a core technique in molecular biology. Often, it is desirable to include partial prior knowledge and conditions in an alignment. Going beyond...
Constraint-based mining techniques on sequence databases have been studied extensively the last few years and efficient algorithms enable to compute complete collections of patte...
This paper provides a framework for the extraction of frequent sequences satisfying a given regular expression (RE) constraint. We take advantage of the information contained in th...
Background: False occurrences of functional motifs in protein sequences can be considered as random events due solely to the sequence composition of a proteome. Here we use a nume...
Discovering interesting patterns in event sequences is a popular task in the field of data mining. Most existing methods try to do this based on some measure of cohesion to deter...
