Homology search, finding similar parts between two sequences, is the most fundamental and popular task in bioinformatics. Traditional homology search
technologies are either too slow or too insensitive.
We present the mathematical theory of optimized spaced seeds, that allow
modern homology search to achieve high sensitivity and high speed simultaneously.
The spaced seed methodology is implemented in our PatternHunter software,as
well as many other modern homology search software, serving thousands of
queries daily.
