[Bioperl-guts-l] [BioPerl - Bug #1857] Bio::SearchDist (Bio::Ext::Align) reports incorrect E-values

[redmine at redmine.open-bio.org]

Issue #1857 has been updated by Chris Fields.

Assignee changed from Ewan Birney to Bioperl Guts

This should probably be superseded by Math::GSL-related code or using bindings to Sean Eddy's easel library (which I don't think is available on it's own yet).

Bug #1857: Bio::SearchDist (Bio::Ext::Align) reports incorrect E-values

Bio::SearchDist does not provide meaningful E-values when trying to fit an   
extreme value distribution (EVD) to a set of integer scores.   
The fit_evd() method seems to complete successfully (i.e. it returns 1). 
However, the subsequently calculated E-values are not correct. 
 
For a test script and input file see http://bioweb.abc.hu/tmp/evd/index.html
