— Data mining in biological structure libraries can be a powerful tool to better understand biochemical processes. This article introduces the LISA algorithm which enables the re...
— This work presents a methodology for the application of a parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) to the problem of protein folding prediction, using the 3DHP-Side Chain model. This m...
In this paper, we propose a simple genetic algorithm for finding the optimal conformation of a protein using the three-dimensional square HP model. A backtracking procedure is use...
