Two Simple and Efficient Algorithms to Compute the SP-Score Objective Function of a Multiple Sequence Alignment.
Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a crucial step in many molecular analyses and many MSA tools have been developed. Most of them use a greedy approach to construct a first alignment that is then refined by optimizing the sum of pair score (SP-score). The SP-score estimation is thus a bottleneck f...
