Learning Features of Intermediate Complexity for the Recognition of Biological Motion
Humans can recognize biological motion from strongly impoverished stimuli, like point-light displays. Although the neural mechanism underlying this robust perceptual process have n...

False occurrences of functional motifs in protein sequences highlight evolutionary constraints
Background: False occurrences of functional motifs in protein sequences can be considered as random events due solely to the sequence composition of a proteome. Here we use a nume...

Finding sequence motifs with Bayesian models incorporating positional information: an application to transcription factor bindin
Background: Biologically active sequence motifs often have positional preferences with respect to a genomic landmark. For example, many known transcription factor binding sites (T...
