An algorithm for statistical alignment of sequences related by a binary tree.

An algorithm is presented that allows the calculation of the probability of a set of sequences related by a binary tree that has evolved according to the Thorne-Kishino-Felsenstein model (1991) for a fixed set of parameters. There are two ideas underlying this algorithm. Firstly, a markov chain is d...
