A common task in biological research is to predict function for proteins by comparing sequences between proteins of known and unknown function. This is often done using pair-wise ...
Similarity search methods are widely used as kernels in various data mining and machine learning applications including those in computational biology, web search/clustering. Near...
Many bioinformatics applications would benefit from comparing proteins based on their biological role rather than their sequence. In most biological databases, proteins are alrea...
Background: Protein structural data has increased exponentially, such that fast and accurate tools are necessary to access structure similarity search. To improve the search speed...
In spite of the many decades of progress in database research, surprisingly scientists in the life sciences community still struggle with inefficient and awkward tools for queryin...
