The Needleman-Wunsch and Smith-Waterman algorithms are two fundamental techniques in bioinformatics for sequence alignment. The Needleman-Wunsch algorithm is used for global alignment, while the Smith ...

Abstract: In many biological research studies that rely on DNA sequence data, calculating the edit distance between two sequences is a vital component. However, computing the edit distance involves ...

Abstract: The Needleman-Wunsch algorithm is a global sequence alignment algorithm that has traditionally been used for DNA, RNA, and protein sequencing. Image comparison is used in multiple ...
