Similarity search has been proved suitable for searching in very large collections of unstructured data objects. We are interested in efficient parallel query processing under si...
The quadratic form distance (QFD) has been utilized as an effective similarity function in multimedia retrieval, in particular, when a histogram representation of objects is used...
Background: In proteomic analysis, MS/MS spectra acquired by mass spectrometer are assigned to peptides by database searching algorithms such as SEQUEST. The assignations of pepti...
Background: Most non-coding RNA families exert their function by means of a conserved, common secondary structure. The Rfam data base contains more than five hundred structurally ...
: In biological sequence analysis, position specific scoring matrices (PSSMs) are widely used to represent sequence motifs. In this paper, we present a new nonheuristic algorithm, ...
