Graph structure can model the relationships among a set of objects. Mining quasi-clique patterns from large dense graph data makes sense with respect to both statistic and applica...
Background: Empirical scoring functions have proven useful in protein structure modeling. Most such scoring functions depend on protein side chain conformations. However, backbone...
