Background: Most non-coding RNA families exert their function by means of a conserved, common secondary structure. The Rfam data base contains more than five hundred structurally ...
Motivation: Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs)--functional RNA molecules not coding for proteins--are grouped into hundreds of families of homologs. To find new members of an ncRNA gene fam...
Background: The secondary structure of RNA molecules is intimately related to their function and often more conserved than the sequence. Hence, the important task of searching dat...

This paper presents a new use of the Curvelet transform as a multiscale method for indexing linear singularities and curved handwritten shapes in documents images. As it belongs t...
A new approach is presented for partitioning an image database by classifying and indexing the convex hull shapes and the number of region concavities. The result is a significant...
