Background: Classification of protein sequences is a central problem in computational biology. Currently, among computational methods discriminative kernel-based approaches provid...
We define new measures of sequence similarity for oligonucleotide probe design. These new measures incorporate the nearest neighbor k-stem motifs in their definition, but can be e...
