Before revision:  Interestingly, although LinearPartition is approximate, it runs in linear time without sacrificing accuracy when base pair probabilities are used to assemble structures , and even leads to a small accuracy improvement on longer families (16S and 23S rRNA  ).
After revision:  Interestingly, although LinearPartition is approximate, it runs in linear time without sacrificing accuracy when base pair probabilities are used to assemble structures , and even leads to a small accuracy improvement on longer families (16S and 23S rRNA ) when used for downstream structure prediction, as well as a substantial improvement on long-distance base pairs (500+ nt apart ).
