iDNA6mA-PseKNC: Identifying DNA N6-methyladenosine sites by incorporating nucleotide physicochemical properties into PseKNC.

TL;DR: A novel predictor called iDNA6mA-PseKNC is proposed that is established by incorporating nucleotide physicochemical properties into Pseudo K-tuple Nucleotide Composition (PSEKNC), and it has been observed via rigorous cross-validations that the predictor's sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and stability are excellent.

iLoc-lncRNA: predict the subcellular location of lncRNAs by incorporating octamer composition into general PseKNC.

TL;DR: A sequence‐based bioinformatics tool called ‘iLoc‐lncRNA’ is developed to predict the subcellular locations of LncRNAs by incorporating the 8‐tuple nucleotide features into the general PseKNC (Pseudo K-tuple Nucleotide Composition) via the binomial distribution approach.

Brief Communication: A novel feature representation method based on Chou's pseudo amino acid composition for protein structural class prediction

TL;DR: A new feature representation method is introduced which is composed of the amino acid composition information, the amphiphilic correlation factors and the spectral characteristics of the protein which incorporates both the sequence order and the length effect.

Using pseudo-amino acid composition and support vector machine to predict protein structural class

TL;DR: A novel predictor is developed for predicting protein structural class by employing a support vector machine learning system and using a different pseudo-amino acid composition (PseAA), indicating that the current predictor featured with the PseAA may play an important complementary role to the elegant covariant discriminant predictor and other existing algorithms.

Prediction of protein structural class using novel evolutionary collocation-based sequence representation.

TL;DR: A novel sequence representation that incorporates evolutionary information encoded using PSI‐BLAST profile‐based collocation of AA pairs is proposed that is shown to substantially improve the accuracy of the structural class prediction.

A Decision-Theoretic Generalization of On-Line Learning and an Application to Boosting

TL;DR: The model studied can be interpreted as a broad, abstract extension of the well-studied on-line prediction model to a general decision-theoretic setting, and it is shown that the multiplicative weight-update Littlestone?Warmuth rule can be adapted to this model, yielding bounds that are slightly weaker in some cases, but applicable to a considerably more general class of learning problems.

Additive Logistic Regression : A Statistical View of Boosting

TL;DR: This work shows that this seemingly mysterious phenomenon of boosting can be understood in terms of well-known statistical principles, namely additive modeling and maximum likelihood, and develops more direct approximations and shows that they exhibit nearly identical results to boosting.

Improved boosting algorithms using confidence-rated predictions

TL;DR: Several improvements to Freund and Schapire’s AdaBoost boosting algorithm are described, particularly in a setting in which hypotheses may assign confidences to each of their predictions.
