High-Level Code Choose the first k-mer from the first protein sequence Compute a profile for this k-mer Choose the profile-most-probable k-mer from the next protein sequence Compute a profile for the k-mers chosen so far Compute the consensus of the selected k- mers Compute the score of the selected k-mers Ritz 2017 Repeat until the profile- most- probable kmer has been selected for each sequence Ritz 2017
High-Level Code Randomize the order of the protein sequences Choose the first a random k-mer from the first protein sequence Compute a profile for this k-mer Choose the profile-most-probable k-mer from the next protein sequence Compute a profile for the k-mers chosen so far Compute the consensus of the selected k- mers Compute the score of the selected k-mers based on amino acid mutation table Repeat until the profile- most- probable kmer has been selected for each sequence Repeat n timesRepeat i times Ritz 2017
