Abstract

Extending the single optimized spaced seed of PatternHunter(20) to multiple ones, PatternHunter II simultaneously remedies the lack of sensitivity of Blastn and the lack of speed of Smith-Waterman, for homology search. At Blastn speed, PatternHunter II approaches Smith-Waterman sensitivity, bringing homology search methodology research back to a full circle.
