Title
Probalign: multiple sequence alignment using partition function posterior probabilities.
Authors
Roshan, Usman; Livesay, Dennis R
Abstract
The maximum expected accuracy optimization criterion for multiple sequence alignment uses pairwise posterior probabilities of residues to align sequences. The partition function methodology is one way of estimating these probabilities. Here, we combine these two ideas for the first time to construct maximal expected accuracy sequence alignments.
