Table of Contents Diamond transition or how technicalities can break conceptsBut let’s take a closer look Conclusion Diamond transition or how technicalities can break concepts We assume the reader has some basic knowledge about pairwise alignment and in particular the WFA algorithm. In this post we dive into a potential 2x speedup of WFA — one that turns out not to work. Let’s take a look at one of the most important and efficient algorithms for pairwise alignment — WFA (Marco-Sola e...
