  • Abstract
    In this work, we present GAMID, and extension of GAMI. GAMID is designed to be used for motif inference in noncoding DNA for co-expressed genes or for divergent species. In these cases, we would like to allow the inferred motif to be present in only a subset of the input data. This paper describes the approach and presents preliminary results.
