The Average Mutual Information Profile as a Genomic Signature
Background: Occult organizational structures in DNA sequences may hold the key to understanding functional and evolutionary aspects of the DNA molecule. Such structures can also p...

Identification and characterization of subfamily-specific signatures in a large protein superfamily by a hidden Markov model app
Background: Most profile and motif databases strive to classify protein sequences into a broad spectrum of protein families. The next step of such database studies should include ...

Learning biophysically-motivated parameters for alpha helix prediction
Background: Our goal is to develop a state-of-the-art protein secondary structure predictor, with an intuitive and biophysically-motivated energy model. We treat structure predict...

A Polynomial Time Approximation Scheme for Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Trees
Given an undirected graph with nonnegative costs on the edges, the routing cost of any of its spanning trees is the sum over all pairs of vertices of the cost of the path between t...

SplitTester: software to identify domains responsible for functional divergence in protein family
Background: Many protein families have undergone functional divergence after gene duplications such that current subgroups of the family carry out overlapping but distinct biologi...
