摘要
We point out the importance to incorporate affine-gap penalties in RNA secondary-structure comparison. Two notions of affine-gap penalties, one for sequences and the other for structures, are developed. A model from Jiang et al. in [J Comput Biol, 2002, 9, (2), pp. 371-388] is extended to allow this facility, and a polynomial-time algorithm is provided in this paper. Experimental results in this paper revealed that our new model generates more accurate and biological meaningful alignments than several existing algorithms.
