Background: Due to their role of receptors or transporters, membrane proteins play a key role in many important biological functions. In our work we used Grammatical Inference (GI...
Background: Traditional genome alignment methods consider sequence alignment as a variation of the string edit distance problem, and perform alignment by matching characters of th...
Evolutionary relationships among species can be represented by a phylogenetic tree and inferred by optimising some measure of fitness, such as the statistical likelihood of the t...
Aligning multiple DNA or protein sequences is a fundamental step in the analyses of phylogeny, homology and molecular structure. Heuristic algorithms are applied because optimal mu...
In this paper, we propose a parallel algorithm for mining maximal frequent itemsets from databases. A frequent itemset is maximal if none of its supersets is frequent. The new par...
