Agent-based protein structure prediction
A protein is identified by a finite sequence of amino acids, each of them chosen from a set of 20 elements. The Protein Structure Prediction Problem is the problem of predicting...

A Knowledge-Based Method for Protein Structure Refinement and Prediction
The native conformation of a protein, in a given environment, is determined entirely by the various interatomic interactions dictated by the amino acid sequence (1-3). We describe...

On the Extraction of Curve Skeletons using Gradient Vector Flow
In this paper, we propose a new variational framework for computing continuous curve skeletons from discrete objects that are suitable for structural shape representation. We have...

P3 & Beyond: Solving Energies with Higher Order Cliques
In this paper we extend the class of energy functions for which the optimal -expansion and -swap moves can be computed in polynomial time. Specifically, we introduce a class of hi...
