摘要
Let X-1... X-n be a sequence of i.i.d. positive or negative integer-valued random variables and H-n = max(0 less than or equal toi less than or equal toj less than or equal ton)(X-i + - - - + X-j) be the local score of the sequence. The exact distribution of H-n is obtained using a simple Markov chain. This result is applied to the scoring of DNA and protein sequences in molecular biology.
