Comparison study on k-word statistical measures for protein: From sequence to 'sequence space'
Background: Many proposed statistical measures can efficiently compare protein sequence to further infer protein structure, function and evolutionary information. They share the s...

Local sequence alignments statistics: deviations from Gumbel statistics in the rare-event tail
Background: The optimal score for ungapped local alignments of infinitely long random sequences is known to follow a Gumbel extreme value distribution. Less is known about the imp...

Proportion statistics to detect differentially expressed genes: a comparison with log-ratio statistics
Background: In genetic transcription research, gene expression is typically reported in a test sample relative to a reference sample. Laboratory assays that measure gene expressio...

A new protein binding pocket similarity measure based on comparison of clouds of atoms in 3D: application to ligand prediction
Background: Predicting which molecules can bind to a given binding site of a protein with known 3D structure is important to decipher the protein function, and useful in drug desi...
