bare links again
Let's see you actually explain things in your own words SO. You'll start to get short suspensions if you don't.

Re: bare links again
This is their method of computing the FSC. They used the protein sequences from the PFAM database and than they were compared and measured. What do you think is wrong with this method?
This is your whole explanation? How were they compared and how measured?
You were replying to:
quote:
Have Durston et al. expanded Abel and Trevor's work to get an algorithm for producing some measure of complexity from sequence alignments, yes but not any better than half a dozen already extant methods. Have they shown how to use this method to analyse a heterogenous set of sequences, no. Have they given us usable criteria for 'Function' that we can use for selection? No.
Where are your words on the method to analyze a heterogeneous set? Where are the usable criteria for function? Either explain them or explain why they aren't needed.
You have apparently already been given what is wrong.
