Multiple Pairwise Sequences Alignments with Needleman-Wunsch Algorithm on GPU
Pairwise sequence alignment is the method to find the best matching piece for two sequences. It can be either local which return the most similar subsequence or global which return the alignment of whole sequence. Nowadays, the number of genetic sequences increases exponentially so that it becomes a challenge to analyze and understand those data. The cutting-edge parallel architectures provide ...

Alignment of seismic traces is a recurring need in seismic processing and interpretation. For global alignment via static shift there are robust tools available, including cross correlation. However, another kind of alignment problem arises in applications as diverse as associating synthetic seismograms to field data, harmonizing P-wave and mode converted data, final multilevel flattening of co...

DIAL (dihedral alignment) is a web server that provides public access to a new dynamic programming algorithm for pairwise 3D structural alignment of RNA. DIAL achieves quadratic time by performing an alignment that accounts for (i) pseudo-dihedral and/or dihedral angle similarity, (ii) nucleotide sequence similarity and (iii) nucleotide base-pairing similarity. DIAL provides access to three ali...

متن کاملStatistical evaluation and comparison of a pairwise alignment algorithm that a priori assigns the number of gaps rather than employing gap penalties
MOTIVATION Although pairwise sequence alignment is essential in comparative genomic sequence analysis, it has proven difficult to precisely determine the gap penalties for a given pair of sequences. A common practice is to employ default penalty values. However, there are a number of problems associated with using gap penalties. First, alignment results can vary depending on the gap penalties, ...
