We consider the problem of protein folding in the HP model on the 3D square lattice. This problem is combinatorially equivalent to folding a string of 0’s and 1’s so that the s...
Background: Empirical scoring functions have proven useful in protein structure modeling. Most such scoring functions depend on protein side chain conformations. However, backbone...
This paper presents a new Genetic Algorithm for Protein Structure Prediction problem in both 2D and 3D hydrophobichydrophilic lattice models, introduced in [1]. Our algorithm evol...
We describe an efficient and robust method of tracking human forearms as skin colored regions. Of special consideration in the design of this system are real-time and robustness ...
Background: The protein folding problem remains one of the most challenging open problems in computational biology. Simplified models in terms of lattice structure and energy func...
