Motivation: Score-based progressive alignment algorithms do dynamic programming on successive branches of a guide tree. The analogous probabilistic construct is an Evolutionary HMM. This is a multiple-sequence hidden Markov model (HMM) made by combining transducers (conditionally normalised Pair HMMs) on the branches of a phylogenetic tree.Methods: We present general algorithms for constructing an Evolutionary HMM from any Pair HMM and for doing dynamic programming to any Multiple-sequence HMM.Results: Our prototype implementation, Handel, is based on the Thorne-Kishino-Felsenstein evolutionary model and is benchmarked using structural reference alignments.
