Finding Biologically Accurate Clusterings in Hierarchical Tree Decompositions Using the Variation of Information
Abstract. Hierarchical clustering is a popular method for grouping together similar elements based on a distance measure between them. In many cases, annotation information for som...

The contrasting properties of conservation and correlated phylogeny in protein functional residue prediction
Background: Amino acids responsible for structure, core function or specificity may be inferred from multiple protein sequence alignments where a limited set of residue types are ...
