Background: Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) have proven very useful in computational biology for such applications as sequence pattern matching, gene-finding, and structure prediction...
Queries issued by casual users or specialists exploring a data set often point us to important subsets of the data, be it clusters, outliers or other features of particular import...
We propose two methods for finding similarities in protein structure databases. Our techniques extract feature vectors on triplets of SSEs (Secondary Structure Elements) of prote...
Background: Existing biological databases support a variety of queries such as keyword or definition search. However, they do not provide any measure of relevance for the instance...
In contrast to classical databases and IR systems, real-world information systems have to deal increasingly with very vague and diverse structures for information management and s...
