Evaluation of several lightweight stochastic context-free grammars for RNA secondary structure prediction
Background: RNA secondary structure prediction methods based on probabilistic modeling can be developed using stochastic context-free grammars (SCFGs). Such methods can readily co...

Considerations in the identification of functional RNA structural elements in genomic alignments
Background: Accurate identification of novel, functional noncoding (nc) RNA features in genome sequence has proven more difficult than for exons. Current algorithms identify and s...

Accelerated probabilistic inference of RNA structure evolution
Background: Pairwise stochastic context-free grammars (Pair SCFGs) are powerful tools for evolutionary analysis of RNA, including simultaneous RNA sequence alignment and secondary...

Shape based indexing for faster search of RNA family databases
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 ...

Ab initio identification of human microRNAs based on structure motifs
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, non-coding RNA molecules that are directly involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. The mature miRNA sequence bind...
