14 =head1 NAME
16 Bio::Search::Hit::ModelHit - A model-based implementation of the Bio::Search::Hit::HitI interface
18 =head1 SYNOPSIS
20 use Bio::Search::Hit::ModelHit;
21 my $hit = Bio::Search::Hit::ModelHit->new(-algorithm => 'rnamotif');
23 # typically one gets HitI objects from a SearchIO stream via a ResultI
24 use Bio::SearchIO;
25 my $parser = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'infernal', -file => 'trap.inf');
27 my $result = $parser->next_result;
28 my $hit = $result->next_hit;
30 =head1 DESCRIPTION
32 This object handles the hit data from a database search using models or
33 descriptors instead of sequences, such as Infernal, HMMER, RNAMotif, etc.
35 Unless you're writing a parser, you won't ever need to create a ModelHit or
36 any other HitI-implementing object. If you use the SearchIO system, HitI objects
37 are created automatically from a SearchIO stream which returns
38 Bio::Search::Hit::HitI objects.
40 Note that several HitI-based methods have been overridden from ModelHit due to
41 their unreliability when dealing with queries that aren't sequence-based. It may
42 be possible to reimplement these at a later point, but for the time being they
43 will throw warnings and return w/o results.
45 For documentation on what you can do with ModelHit (and other HitI objects),
46 please see the API documentation in
47 L<Bio::Search::Hit::HitI|Bio::Search::Hit::HitI>.
