Background: Detecting remote homologies by direct comparison of protein sequences remains a challenging task. We had previously developed a similarity score between sequences, cal...
Accurately estimating probabilities from observations is important for probabilistic-based approaches to problems in computational biology. In this paper we present a biologically...
Similarity search in texts, notably in biological sequences, has received substantial attention in the last few years. Numerous filtration and indexing techniques have been create...
The computational power needed for searching exponentially growing databases, such as GenBank, has increased dramatically. Three different implementations of the most widely used ...
Uknown to us, an axially-symmetric surface is broken into disjoint pieces along a set of break-curves, i.e., the curves along which the surface locally breaks into two pieces. A s...
