Lead section should be improved

In its current form, the text of the lead section would better be moved into a new section called e.g. 'Motivation'. The lead text itself should better state briefly what Alignment-free sequence analysis is (such as 'a collection of methods to analyze sequences without employing alignment' or the like). The current lead doesn't explain that at all, nor does the whole article (unless I overlooked something). It is tedious for a non-expert to read through all the particular method descriptions to abstract a common property of them. - 84.175.64.108 (talk) 21:03, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
