Background: To understand an RNA sequence's mechanism of action, the structure must be known. Furthermore, target RNA structure is an important consideration in the design of...
Here we investigate an extension of a previously suggested "automatic amide I frequency selection procedure" where we introduce an additional criterion utilizing empiric...

In this paper, we present a graphical model for protein secondary structure prediction. This model extends segmental semi-Markov models (SSMM) to exploit multiple sequence alignme...
Background: The accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction has been improving steadily towards the 88% estimated theoretical limit. There are two types of prediction algor...
