Background: Detecting remote homologies by direct comparison of protein sequences remains a challenging task. We had previously developed a similarity score between sequences, cal...
Abstract. Substitution matrices are at the heart of Bioinformatics: sequence alignment, database search, phylogenetic inference, protein family classication are based on Blosum, P...

Background: The most common substitution matrices currently used (BLOSUM and PAM) are based on protein sequences with average amino acid distributions, thus they do not represent ...
Background: Classification of protein sequences is a central problem in computational biology. Currently, among computational methods discriminative kernel-based approaches provid...
