Figure 1

Modified sequences with consoles. Here L1, L2, K1, K2, R1, R2 are left consoles, cores and right consoles of the first and second modified sequences; their lengths |L1| = |R2| = 9, |L2| = |R1| = 11, |K1| ≠ |K2| (inequality is explained by differing length of random insertions and deletions). Then r = (|L1| + |R1|)/|P| = (9+11)/200 = 0.1, c= (|R1| - |L1|)/|(|L1| + |R1|) = 2/20 = 0.1, where |P| = 200 is the length of the initial sequence.
