Automated methods of predicting the function of biological sequences using GO and BLAST
Background: With the exponential increase in genomic sequence data there is a need to develop automated approaches to deducing the biological functions of novel sequences with hig...

Incorporating background frequency improves entropy-based residue conservation measures
Background: Several entropy-based methods have been developed for scoring sequence conservation in protein multiple sequence alignments. High scoring amino acid positions may corr...

Pairwise covariance adds little to secondary structure prediction but improves the prediction of non-canonical local structure
Background: Amino acid sequence probability distributions, or profiles, have been used successfully to predict secondary structure and local structure in proteins. Profile models ...

Detection of non-coding RNAs on the basis of predicted secondary structure formation free energy change
Background: Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have a multitude of roles in the cell, many of which remain to be discovered. However, it is difficult to detect novel ncRNAs in biochemical s...

Time-synchronization in mobile sensor networks from difference measurements
We examine distributed time-synchronization in mobile ad-hoc and sensor networks. The problem is to estimate the skews and offsets of clocks of all the nodes with respect to an arb...
