16 hmmlogo computes letter height and indel parameters that can be used to
17 produce a profile HMM logo. This tool is essentially a command-line in‐
18 terface for much of the data underlying the Skylign logo server
19 (skylign.org).
20
21 By default, hmmlogo prints out a table of per-position letter heights
22 (dependent on the requested height method), then prints a table of per-
23 position gap probabilities.
24
25 In a typical logo, the total height of a stack of letters for one posi‐
26 tion depends on the information content of the position, and that stack
27 height is subdivided according to the emission probabilities of the
28 letters of the alphabet.

38 --height_relent_all
39 Total height = relative entropy (aka information content); all
40 letters are given a positive height. (default)
41
42
43 --height_relent_abovebg
44 Total height = relative entropy (aka information content); only
45 letters with above-background probability are given positive
46 height.
47
48
49 --height_score
50 Total height = sums of scores of positive-scoring letters; let‐
51 ter height depends on the score of that letter at that position.
52 Only letters with above-background probability (positive score)
53 are given positive height. (Note that only letter height is
54 meaningful - stack height has no inherent meaning).
