Improved alignment quality by combining evolutionary information, predicted secondary structure and self-organizing maps
Background: Protein sequence alignment is one of the basic tools in bioinformatics. Correct alignments are required for a range of tasks including the derivation of phylogenetic t...

Efficacy of different protein descriptors in predicting protein functional families
Background: Sequence-derived structural and physicochemical descriptors have frequently been used in machine learning prediction of protein functional families, thus there is a ne...

Improving Prediction of Zinc Binding Sites by Modeling the Linkage Between Residues Close in Sequence
Abstract. We describe and empirically evaluate machine learning methods for the prediction of zinc binding sites from protein sequences. We start by observing that a data set consi...
