—The most pervasive compute operation carried out in almost all bioinformatics applications is pairwise sequence homology detection (or sequence alignment). Due to exponentially ...
Background: Accurate estimation of statistical significance of a pairwise alignment is an important problem in sequence comparison. Recently, a comparative study of pairwise stati...
Face recognition with partial face images is an important problem in face biometrics. The necessity can arise in not so constrained environments such as in surveillance video, or p...
Background: Molecular database search tools need statistical models to assess the significance for the resulting hits. In the classical approach one asks the question how probable...

Background: The prediction of ancestral protein sequences from multiple sequence alignments is useful for many bioinformatics analyses. Predicting ancestral sequences is not a sim...
