Computationally identifying transcription factor binding sites in the promoter regions of genes is an important problem in computational biology and has been under intensive resea...
Recognition of motifs in multiple unaligned sequences provides an insight into protein structure and function. The task of discovering these motifs is very challenging because mos...
We propose a sequential Monte Carlo (SMC)-based motif discovery algorithm that can efficiently detect motifs in datasets containing a large number of sequences. The statistical di...
Background: Motif discovery aims to detect short, highly conserved patterns in a collection of unaligned DNA or protein sequences. Discriminative motif finding algorithms aim to i...
