This package is not currently in any snapshots. If you're interested in using it, we recommend adding it to Stackage Nightly. Doing so will make builds more reliable, and allow stackage.org to host generated Haddocks.

generalized Algebraic Dynamic Programming

A selection of (sequence) alignment algorithms. Both terminal, and syntactic variables, as well as the index type is not fixed here. This makes it possible to select the correct structure of the grammar here, but bind the required data type for alignment in user code.

That being said, these algorithms are mostly aimed towards sequence alignment problems.

List of grammars for sequences:

  • global alignment

  • linear scoring: Needleman-Wunsch style

  • affine scoring: Gotoh

  • semiglobal alignment

  • overhang alignment

List of grammar for trees:

  • global alignment

  • linear scoring

  • affine scoring

  • simplified affine scoring

  • global editing

  • linear scoring

We now provide tree alignment and editing algorithms as well. We do not depend on ADPfusionForest to achieve this because grammar rules are completely disconnected from the underlying ADPfusion machinery.
