Different comparison with SSW #11

Closed Martinsos closed 10 years ago

Martinsos commented 10 years ago

Right now I am comparing Myers with SSW while using dynamic adjusting of k in Myers. Is that ok? Can k be specified in SSW? If so, then I should try comparing with fixed k. If not, I could still try comparing with fixed k for just Myers maybe.

k can not be fixed in SSW. It does not even use edit distance so it can not really be compared.
