Numerical characteristics of word frequencies and their application to dissimilarity measure for sequence comparison.

Abstract excerpt

Sequence comparison is one of the major tasks in bioinformatics, which can be used to study structural and functional conservation, as well as evolutionary relations among the sequences. Numerous dissimilarity measures achieve promising results in sequence comparison, but challenges remain. This paper studied numerical characteristics of word frequencies and proposed a novel dissimilarity measure for sequence...
