Generic function computing the Akaike Information Criterion of
 the model <code>x</code>, with the list of sequences <code>sequences</code>.

Performs the drifting Markov models (DMM) which are
non-homogeneous Markov models designed for modeling the heterogeneities of
sequences in a more flexible way than homogeneous Markov chains or even
hidden Markov models. In this context, we developed an R package dedicated to
the estimation, simulation and the exact computation of associated reliability
of drifting Markov models. The implemented methods are described in
Vergne, N. (2008), <doi:10.2202/1544-6115.1326> and
Barbu, V.S., Vergne, N. (2019) <doi:10.1007/s11009-018-9682-8> .
