Variable Gap Penalty

Variable Gap Penalty is a gap penalty function in sequence alignment that assigns position- or context-dependent scores to gap initiation and extension, distinguishing itself from fixed penalty models by varying the cost of gaps based on local sequence features, evolutionary considerations, or alignment dynamics.
