edlib sequence alignment tool using edit distance
Edlib is a lightweight and super fast C/C++ library for sequence alignment using edit distance. This package provides an aligner using this library. Features of libedlib * Calculates edit distance (Levehnstein distance). * It can find optimal alignment path (instructions how to transform first sequence into the second sequence). * It can find just the start and/or end locations of alignment path - can be useful when speed is more important than having exact alignment path. * Supports multiple alignment methods: global(NW), prefix(SHW) and infix(HW), each of them useful for different scenarios. * You can extend character equality definition, enabling you to e.g. have wildcard characters, to have case insensitive alignment or to work with degenerate nucleotides. * It can easily handle small or very large sequences, even when finding alignment path, while consuming very little memory. * Super fast thanks to Myers's bit-vector algorithm.
