Local sequence alignments with monotonic gap penalties.

MOTIVATION: Sequence alignments obtained using affine gap penalties are not always biologically correct, because the insertion of long gaps is over-penalised. There is a need for an efficient algorithm which can find local alignments using non-linear gap penalties. RESULTS: A dynamic programming alg...
