Background: The continuous flow of EST data remains one of the richest sources for discoveries in modern biology. The first step in EST data mining is usually associated with EST ...
In this work we present a new string similarity feature, the sparse spatial sample (SSS). An SSS is a set of short substrings at specific spatial displacements contained in the or...
The robustness of a system is a property that pervades all aspects of Nature. The ability of a system to adapt itself to perturbations due to internal and external agents, to agin...
In this paper we describe a new algorithm focused on obtaining stationary foreground regions, which is useful for applications like the detection of abandoned/stolen objects and p...
Background: More and more disordered regions have been discovered in protein sequences, and many of them are found to be functionally significant. Previous studies reveal that dis...
