Abstract

The 2-interval pattern problem, introduced in [Stéphane Vialette, On the computational complexity of 2-interval pattern matching problems Theoret. Comput. Sci. 312 (2-3) (2004) 223-249], models general problems with biological structures such as protein contact maps and macroscopic describers of secondary structures of ribonucleic acids. Given a set of 2-intervals D and a model R, the problem is to find a maximum cardinality subset D of D such that any two 2-intervals in D satisfy R, where R is a subset of relations on disjoint 2-intervals: precedence (11The second part of this paper appeared in WABI'2006. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.
