সারসংক্ষেপ	Bayesian sequence alignment treats the alignment of biological sequences (DNA, RNA, or protein) as a probabilistic inference problem rather than a deterministic optimization. Instead of returning a single best alignment, it samples from a posterior distribution over all plausible alignments given a substitution model and gap penalty priors, thereby quantifying alignment uncertainty. It is particularly valuable when downstream analyses such as phylogenetic inference or functional annotation are sensitive to alignment error.	Bayesian phylogenetic analysis uses Bayes' theorem and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling to estimate the posterior probability distribution over phylogenetic trees and model parameters given observed sequence data. Unlike bootstrapped maximum-likelihood methods that return a single best tree, Bayesian inference yields a credible set of trees with associated posterior probabilities, providing a principled measure of phylogenetic uncertainty. It is the dominant framework for estimating divergence times and ancestral relationships in molecular evolution.
