  2. Sequence alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_alignment

    Global alignments, which attempt to align every residue in every sequence, are most useful when the sequences in the query set are similar and of roughly equal size. (This does not mean global alignments cannot start and/or end in gaps.) A general global alignment technique is the Needleman–Wunsch algorithm, which is based on dynamic ...

  3. Needleman–Wunsch algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Needleman–Wunsch_algorithm

    The Needleman–Wunsch algorithm is still widely used for optimal global alignment, particularly when the quality of the global alignment is of the utmost importance. However, the algorithm is expensive with respect to time and space, proportional to the product of the length of two sequences and hence is not suitable for long sequences.

  4. Smith–Waterman algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith–Waterman_algorithm

    It is a global alignment algorithm that requires () calculation steps (and are the lengths of the two sequences being aligned). It uses the iterative calculation of a matrix for the purpose of showing global alignment.

  6. Gap penalty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gap_penalty

    A global alignment performs an end-to-end alignment of the query sequence with the reference sequence. Ideally, this alignment technique is most suitable for closely related sequences of similar lengths. The Needleman-Wunsch algorithm is a dynamic programming technique used to conduct global alignment. Essentially, the algorithm divides the ...

  7. Multiple sequence alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_sequence_alignment

    The alignment of individual motifs is then achieved with a matrix representation similar to a dot-matrix plot in a pairwise alignment. An alternative method that uses fast local alignments as anchor points or seeds for a slower global-alignment procedure is implemented in the CHAOS/DIALIGN suite. [20]

  8. Clustal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clustal

    Depicts the steps the ClustalW software algorithm uses for global alignments. ClustalW, like other Clustal versions, is used for aligning multiple nucleotide or protein sequences efficiently. It uses progressive alignment methods, which prioritize sequences for alignment based on similarity until a global alignment is returned.

  9. Graph Aligner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_Aligner

    Graph Aligner (GRAAL) [1] is an algorithm for global network alignment that is based solely on network topology. It aligns two networks G {\displaystyle G} and H {\displaystyle H} by producing an alignment that consists of a set of ordered pairs ( x , y ) {\displaystyle (x,y)} , where x {\displaystyle x} is a node in G {\displaystyle G} and y ...
