Table 2 More results on synthetic yeast-like data. Same as Table 1, except that the sequences have five embedded motifs (drawn from weight matrices that had 80% "polarisation"); this better mimics real data and also improves the performance of all programs.

From: Sigma: multiple alignment of weakly-conserved non-coding DNA sequence
