Contributions summary:Oleg primarily focused on debugging and optimizing the SeqAn library's multiple sequence alignment (MSA) functionality. They added debug information to benchmark the performance of various steps within the MSA algorithms, including segment-match generation, guide tree construction, and progressive alignment. Furthermore, they introduced changes to the pairwise alignment method selection strategy, incorporating banded alignment for deep alignments and providing options for users to customize the alignment strategy and bandwidth. These modifications aimed to improve both the runtime and quality of the alignment process within the SeqAn framework.
