The Gumbel pre-factor k for gapped local alignment can be estimated from simulations of global alignment

The optimal gapped local alignment score of two random sequences follows a Gumbel distribution. The Gumbel distribution has two parameters, the scale parameter λ and the pre-factor k. Presently, the basic local alignment search tool (BLAST) programs (BLASTP (BLAST for proteins), PSI-BLAST, etc.) use...
