Gets or sets the object that will be used to compute the alignment's consensus.

Gets the description of the pair-wise-Overlap algorithm used. This is a overridden property from the abstract parent. This property returns a simple description of what PairwiseOverlapAligner class implements.

Gets or sets gap extension penalty for use in alignment algorithms. Not used for alignments using a linear gap penalty. For alignments using an affine gap, this is the penalty to extend an existing gap. This is a negative number, for example GapExtensionCost = -2, not +2.

Gets or sets gap open penalty for use in alignment algorithms. For alignments using a linear gap penalty, this is the gap penalty. For alignments using an affine gap, this is the penalty to open a new gap. This is a negative number, for example GapOpenCost = -8, not +8.

Gets the name of the current Alignment algorithm used. This is a overridden property from the abstract parent. This property returns the Name of our algorithm i.e pair-wise-Overlap algorithm.

Gets or sets similarity matrix for use in alignment algorithms.
