ALIGNMENT MAPPING ESTIMATION

An alignment mapping is estimated between (a) a series of measurements of a polymer comprising polymer units, wherein the measurements are dependent on a k-mer, being k polymer units of the polymer, where k is an integer, and (b) a reference sequence of polymer units. A reference model is used that...

Zusammenfassung:An alignment mapping is estimated between (a) a series of measurements of a polymer comprising polymer units, wherein the measurements are dependent on a k-mer, being k polymer units of the polymer, where k is an integer, and (b) a reference sequence of polymer units. A reference model is used that treats the measurements as observations of a reference series of k-mer states corresponding to the reference sequence of polymer units, wherein the reference model comprises: transition weightings for transitions between the k-mer states in the reference series of k-mer states; and in respect of each k-mer state, emission weightings for different measurements being observed when the k-mer state is observed. The reference model is applied to the series of measurements to derive an estimate of an alignment mapping between the series of measurements and the reference series of k-mer states corresponding to the reference sequence of polymer units.
