Background: Microarrays are widely used for the study of gene expression; however deciding on whether observed differences in expression are significant remains a challenge. Resul...
Background: RNA secondary structure prediction methods based on probabilistic modeling can be developed using stochastic context-free grammars (SCFGs). Such methods can readily co...
Abstract. Conserved regions, or motifs, present among RNA secondary structures serve as a useful indicator for predicting the functionality of the RNA molecules. Automated detectio...
Background: Pairwise stochastic context-free grammars (Pair SCFGs) are powerful tools for evolutionary analysis of RNA, including simultaneous RNA sequence alignment and secondary...
Background: Depending on their specific structures, noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) play important roles in many biological processes. Interest in developing new topological indices based...
