"""
HHpred and Hidden Markov Model APIs.

This package defines the abstractions for working with HHpred's HMMs and
hit lists. L{ProfileHMM} is the most important object of this module.
It describes a sequence profile hidden Markov model in the way HHpred
sees this concept:

    - a profile is composed of a list of L{HMMLayer}s, which contain a
      number of L{State}s
    - these L{States} can be of different types: Match, Insertion Deletion, etc.
    - a profile contains a multiple alignment, from which it is derived
    - this multiple alignment is an A3M (condensed) Alignment, where the 
      first sequence is a master sequence
    - the match states in all layers correspond to the residues of the master
      sequence

L{ProfileHMM} objects provide list-like access to their layers:

    >>> hmm.layers[1]
    <HMMLayer>    # first layer: layer at master residue=1
    
Every layer provides dictionary-like access to its states:

    >>> layer[States.Match]
    <Match State>
    
and every state provides dictionary-like access to its transitions to other
states:

    >>> state = hmm.layers[1][States.match]
    >>> state.transitions[States.Insertion]
    <Transition>       # Match > Insertion
    >>> transition.predecessor
    <Match State>      # source state
    >>> transition.successor
    <Insertion State>  # target state

Whether this transition points to a state at the same (i) or the next layer
(i+1) depends on the semantics of the source and the target states.

Building HMMs from scratch is supported through a number of C{append} methods
at various places:

    >>> layer = HMMLayer(...)
    >>> layer.append(State(...))
    >>> hmm.layers.append(layer)

See L{HMMLayersCollection}, L{HMMLayer}, L{EmissionTable} and L{TransitionTable}
for details.
