Algorithm Validation and Runtime Study. (Top Row) Sampled motif IC for MaxEnt and Truncated Uniform algorithms, zeroed by desired IC. For a motif of length 10 and number of sites varying from 20 to 200, each algorithm was called 100 times each with a target IC value of 5, 10 or 15 bits. (Bottom Row) Runtime per motif, using same parameters as above. Times were averaged over three trials
