An accurate scoring function for database search is crucial for peptide identification using tandem mass spectrometry. Although many mathematical models have been proposed to scor...
PSI-BLAST remains one of the popular tools for searching remote homologs in sequence databases. We recently demonstrated that hybrid alignment can function as the alignment core f...
Similarity search leveraging distance-based index structures is increasingly being used for both multimedia and biological database applications. We consider distance-based indexi...

We present a multi-dimensional indexing approach for fast sequence similarity search in DNA and protein databases. In particular, we propose effective transformations of subsequen...
Managing, searching and mining uncertain data has achieved much attention in the database community recently due to new sensor technologies and new ways of collecting data. There ...
