Using 3D Hidden Markov Models that explicitly represent spatial coordinates to model and compare protein structures
Background: Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) have proven very useful in computational biology for such applications as sequence pattern matching, gene-finding, and structure prediction...

Optimal contact definition for reconstruction of Contact Maps
Background: Contact maps have been extensively used as a simplified representation of protein structures. They capture most important features of a protein's fold, being pref...
