Minimizing the Cross Validation Error to Mix Kernel Matrices of Heterogeneous Biological Data

TL;DR: Two ways to mix kernel matrices are presented, where the mixing weights are optimized to minimize the cross validation error and significantly outperformed single kernel classifiers in most cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of Conserved Precursors of miRNAs and Their Mature Forms by Integrating Position-Specific Structural Features

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors utilized position-specific features of miRNA hairpins to improve their identification. And they proposed a probabilistic framework, miRRim2, which integrated the evolutionary and structurally conserved features in each position of the hairpins with heuristically derived values.
Proceedings Article

A Multi-Level Description Scheme of Protein Conformation

TL;DR: The analysis of the relation between primary structure of a region and the subconformation of that region at each level in this description helps to model both local and global interactions of protein structure formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

CDSfold: an algorithm for designing a protein-coding sequence with the most stable secondary structure.

TL;DR: An algorithm for designing a CDS with the most stable secondary structure among all possible ones translated into the same protein, and implemented as the program CDSfold, which is freely available for non-commercial users as stand-alone and web-based software.
Journal ArticleDOI

Processing Sequence Annotation Data Using the Lua Programming Language

TL;DR: The sequence visualization program was successfully implemented, embedding the Lua language for processing of annotation data and layout script and the program is available at http://staff.aist.go.ueno/guppy/.
