WSE, a new sequence distance measure based on word frequencies

In this article, we present a new distance metric, the Weighted Sequence Entropy (WSE), based on the short word composition of biological sequences. As a revision of the classical relative entropy (RE), our metric (1) works equivalently with RE in the case of small k, (2) avoids the degeneracy when...
