Abstract:
An essential tool in biology is the alignment of multiple sequences. Biologists use multiple sequence alignments for tasks such as predicting protein structure and function, reconstructing phylogenetic trees, and finding motifs. Constructing high-quality multiple alignments is computationally hard, both in theory and in practice, and is typically done using heuristic methods. The majority of state-of-the-art multiple alignment programs employ a form and polish strategy, where in the construction phase, an initial multiple alignment is formed by progressively merging smaller alignments, startin

Abstract:
The task of aligning multiple audio visual sequences with similar contents needs careful synchronisation in both spatial and temporal domains. It is a challenging task due to a broad range of contents variations, background clutter, occlusions, and other factors. This thesis is concerned with aligning video contents by characterising the spatial and temporal information embedded in the high-dimensional space. To that end a three- stage framework is developed, involving space-time representation of video clips with local linear coding, followed by their alignment in the manifold embedded space.

The problem of aligning multiple protein sequences is essential to many biological analyses, but most standard formulations of the problem are NP-complete. Due to both the difficulty of the problem and its practical importance, there are many heuristic multiple sequence aligners that a researcher has at their disposal. A basic issue that frequently arises is that each of these alignment tools has a multitude of parameters that must be set, and which greatly affect the quality of the alignment produced.
