Average complexity of the Jiang-Wang-Zhang pairwise tree alignment algorithm and of a RNA secondary structure alignment algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove that the average complexity of the pairwise ordered tree alignment algorithm of Jiang, Wang and Zhang is in O(nm), where n and m stand for the sizes of the two trees, respectively. We show that the same result holds for the average complexity of pairwise comparison of RNA secondary structures, using a set of biologically relevant operations.

متن کاملLocal Similarity in RNA Secondary Structures
We present a systematic treatment of alignment distance and local similarity algorithms on trees and forests. We build upon the tree alignment algorithm for ordered trees given by Jiang et. al (1995) and extend it to calculate local forest alignments, which is essential for finding local similar regions in RNA secondary structures. The time complexity of our algorithm is O(|F(1)| |F(2) deg(F(1)...

متن کاملFast RNA Structure Alignment for Crossing Input Structures
The complexity of pairwise RNA structure alignment depends on the structural restrictions assumed for both the input structures and the computed consensus structure. For arbitrarily crossing input and consensus structures, the problem is NP-hard. For non-crossing consensus structures, Jiang et al’s algorithm [1] computes the alignment in O(nm) time where n and m denote the lengths of the two in...
متن کاملAlignment of Trees - An Alternative to Tree Edit
In this paper, we propose the alignment of trees as a measure of the similarity between two labeled trees. Both ordered and unordered trees are considered. An algorithm is designed for ordered trees. The time complexity of this algorithm is O( IT a I . ITz l . (deg(T I ) + degqT2))2). where I Til is the number of nodes in Ti and de6(T~) is the degree of T i, i -I. 2. The algorithm is faster tha...
