String kernels directly model sequence similarities without the necessity of extracting numerical features in a vector space. Since they better capture complex traits in the seque...
Background: Understanding how amino acid substitutions affect protein functions is critical for the study of proteins and their implications in diseases. Although methods have bee...
Background: Virtually all currently available microRNA target site prediction algorithms require the presence of a (conserved) seed match to the 5' end of the microRNA. Recen...
