Background: Protein sequence alignments have become indispensable for virtually any evolutionary, structural or functional study involving proteins. Modern sequence search and com...
Background: In population-based studies, it is generally recognized that single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers are not independent. Rather, they are carried by haplotypes, ...
The goal of assembly planning consists in generating feasible sequences to assemble a product and selecting an efficient assembly sequence from which related constraint factors su...
Background: The advent of pyrophosphate sequencing makes large volumes of sequencing data available at a lower cost than previously possible. However, the short read lengths are d...
Traditional machine-learned ranking algorithms for web search are trained in batch mode, which assume static relevance of documents for a given query. Although such a batch-learni...
