: Computational classification of proteins using methods such as string kernels and Fisher-SVM has demonstrated great success. However, the resulting models do not offer an immedia...
Background: Classification of protein sequences is a central problem in computational biology. Currently, among computational methods discriminative kernel-based approaches provid...
— Part of the challenge of modeling protein sequences is their discrete nature. Many of the most powerful statistical and learning techniques are applicable to points in a Euclid...
Background: Detecting homology between remotely related protein families is an important problem in computational biology since the biological properties of uncharacterized protei...
Background: Detection of common evolutionary origin (homology) is a primary means of inferring protein structure and function. At present, comparison of protein families represent...
