Closest string of the closest string problem, which is NP-complete, instead takes "k" as another input and questions whether there is a string within Hamming distance "k" of all the input strings. The closest string problem can be seen as an instance of the 1-center problem in which the distances between elements are measured using Hamming distance. In bioinformatics, the closest string problem is an intensively studied facet of the problem of finding signals in DNA. Instances of closest string may contain information that is not essential to the problem. In some sense, the usual input of closest string contains information, that
