Background: Existing tools for multiple-sequence alignment focus on aligning protein sequence or protein-coding DNA sequence, and are often based on extensions to Needleman-Wunsch...
Background: Vast progress in sequencing projects has called for annotation on a large scale. A Number of methods have been developed to address this challenging task. These method...

Background: Protein topology representations such as residue contact maps are an important intermediate step towards ab initio prediction of protein structure. Although improvemen...
Background: siRNAs are small RNAs that serve as sequence determinants during the gene silencing process called RNA interference (RNAi). It is well know that siRNA efficiency is cr...
We survey the emerging area of compression-based, parameter-free, similarity distance measures useful in data-mining, pattern recognition, learning and automatic semantics extracti...
