Amino acid sequence assignment from single molecule peptide sequencing data using a two-stage classifier

An illustration of the factoring of the transition matrix for the peptide from Fig 4.
Note especially the reduction in the total number of transitions (arrows) when the transition matrix is factored. At left, black arrows represent non-zero entries in the unfactored transition matrix. At right, colored arrows (see key) represent non-zero entries in each of the matrices in the factored product. In both diagrams, arrows from a state to itself are omitted for visual clarity.
