title = "New algorithms for the spaced seeds",
abstract = "The best known algorithm computes the sensitivity of a given spaced seed on a random region with running time O((M+L)|B|), where M is the length of the seed, L is the length of the random region, and |B| is the size of seed-compatible-suffix set, which is exponential to the number of 0's in the seed. We developed two algorithms to improve this running time: the first one improves the running time to O(|B′|2ML), where B′ is a subset of B; the second one improves the running time to O((M|B|) 2.236log(L/M)), which will be much smaller than the original running time when L is large. We also developed a Monte Carlo algorithm which can guarantee to quickly find a near optimal seed with high probability.",
