We present a new pairwise alignment algorithm that uses iterative statistical analysis of homologous subsequences. Apart from the classical conversion of the DOT-matrix characteristic of the Needleman-Wunsch algorithm (NW), we used only those matrix elements that corresponded to the most non-random subsequence homologies. The most reliable elements of the DOT-matrix are written to the compact competition matrices. The algorithm then searches for alignment on the base of only these matrix elements. Our algorithm has low storage and memory requirements, but provides a reliable alignment for the sequences of weak homology (or, at least for the homology regions). In such cases classical NW algorithms often produce unreliable results on the level of statistical noise due to accumulation of random matchings throughout the aligned sequences.
