The transmission of sequence X with a reference sequence Y. In Figure 1a, the transmission of a sequence X is alleviated by a compression model which uses a predictive model based on Markov experts (Markov models). The information content of each position is plotted in the graph below. With the presence of a related reference sequence Y , the compression model makes use of align experts, which exploit the similarity of the two sequences, for better compression (as shown in Figure 1b).
