Distributed Threshold Querying of General Functions by a Difference of Monotonic Representation
The goal of a threshold query is to detect all objects whose score exceeds a given threshold. This type of query is used in many settings, such as data mining, event triggering, a...

A decoy set for the thermostable subdomain from chicken villin headpiece, comparison of different free energy estimators
Background: Estimators of free energies are routinely used to judge the quality of protein structural models. As these estimators still present inaccuracies, they are frequently e...

Orientation-dependent backbone-only residue pair scoring functions for fixed backbone protein design
Background: Empirical scoring functions have proven useful in protein structure modeling. Most such scoring functions depend on protein side chain conformations. However, backbone...
