Background: Evolutionary conservation of RNA secondary structure is a typical feature of many functional non-coding RNAs. Since almost all of the available methods used for predic...

Background: The ability to access, search and analyse secondary structures of a large set of known RNA molecules is very important for deriving improved RNA energy models, for eva...

Background: Depending on their specific structures, noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) play important roles in many biological processes. Interest in developing new topological indices based...
The increasing significance of RNAs in transcriptional or post-transcriptional gene regulation processes has generated considerable interest towards the prediction of RNA folding ...

Abstract-- The RNA secondary structure design (SSD) problem is a recently emerging research topic motivated by applications such as customized drug design and the self-assembly of ...
The accurate computational prediction of RNA secondary structures is a difficult task, but an important one, since RNA structure is usually more evolutionarily conserved than prima...
Motivation: Since the whole genome sequences for many species are currently available, computational predictions of RNA secondary structures and computational identifications of t...
We describe an algorithm for comparing two RNA secondary structures coded in the form of trees that introduces two novel operations, called node fusion and edge fusion, besides the...
We introduce the notion of conservative edit distance and mapping between two RNA stem-loops. We show that unlike the general edit distance between RNA secondary structures, the co...
Searching genomes for RNA secondary structure with computational methods has become an important approach to the annotation of non-coding RNAs. However, due to the lack of effici...
