4 * An interface that describes classes that can compute similarity (aka
5 * substitution) scores for pairs of residues
7 public interface PairwiseScoreModelI
10 * Answers a similarity score between two sequence characters (for
11 * substitution of the first by the second). Typically the highest scores are
12 * for identity, and the lowest for substitution of a residue by one with very
13 * different properties.
19 abstract public float getPairwiseScore(char c, char d);
22 * Returns a readable name for the model, suitable for display in menus
29 * Answers true if the model is applicable to nucleotide data
36 * Answers true if the model is applicable to peptide data
