Much scientific enquiry across disciplines is founded upon a mechanistic treatment of dynamic systems that ties form to function. A highly visible instance of this is in molecular biology, where an important goal is to determine…

Although RNAs play many cellular functions little is known about the dynamics and thermodynamics of these molecules. In principle, all-atom molecular dynamics simulations can investigate these issues, but with current computer facilities,…

The applications of artificial neural networks in the cosmological field have shone successfully during the past decade, this is due to their great ability of modeling large amounts of datasets and complex nonlinear functions. However, in…

Real-world applications of computational fluid dynamics often involve the evaluation of quantities of interest for several distinct geometries that define the computational domain or are embedded inside it. For example, design optimization…

At the core of high throughput DNA sequencing platforms lies a bio-physical surface process that results in a random geometry of clusters of homogenous short DNA fragments typically hundreds of base pairs long - bridge amplification. The…

We propose a new family of combinatorial inference problems for graphical models. Unlike classical statistical inference where the main interest is point estimation or parameter testing, combinatorial inference aims at testing the global…

The alignment of biological sequences such as DNA, RNA, and proteins, is one of the basic tools that allow to detect evolutionary patterns, as well as functional/structural characterizations between homologous sequences in different…

We study plane trees as a model for RNA secondary structure, assigning energy to each tree based on the Nearest Neighbor Thermodynamic Model, and defining a corresponding Gibbs distribution on the trees. Through a bijection between plane…

Current biocomputing approaches predominantly rely on engineered circuits with fixed logic, offering limited stability and reliability under diverse environmental conditions. Here, we use the GRNN framework introduced in our previous work…

Deep neural network-based architectures give promising results in various domains including pattern recognition. Finding the optimal combination of the hyper-parameters of such a large-sized architecture is tedious and requires a large…

The design of molecules and materials with tailored properties is challenging, as candidate molecules must satisfy multiple competing requirements that are often difficult to measure or compute. While molecular structures, produced through…

Statistical analysis of DNA mixtures is known to pose computational challenges due to the enormous state space of possible DNA profiles. We propose a Bayesian network representation for genotypes, allowing computations to be performed…

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy is a widely used technique to predict the native structure of proteins. However, NMR machines are only able to report approximate and partial distances between pair of atoms. To build the…

Deep learning has become a powerful tool in computational biology, revolutionising the analysis and interpretation of biological data over time. In our article review, we delve into various aspects of deep learning in computational biology.…

This paper proposes an algorithmic framework for solving parametric optimization problems which we call adjoint-based predictor-corrector sequential convex programming. After presenting the algorithm, we prove a contraction estimate that…

Transformers have become methods of choice in many applications thanks to their ability to represent complex interactions between elements. However, extending the Transformer architecture to non-sequential data such as molecules and…

The field of geometric deep learning has had a profound impact on the development of innovative and powerful graph neural network architectures. Disciplines such as computer vision and computational biology have benefited significantly from…

It has been well accepted that the RNA secondary structures of most functional non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are closely related to their functions and are conserved during evolution. Hence, prediction of conserved secondary structures from…

A good feature representation is a determinant factor to achieve high performance for many machine learning algorithms in terms of classification. This is especially true for techniques that do not build complex internal representations of…

In this paper we consider the problem of computing an mRNA sequence of maximal similarity for a given mRNA of secondary structure constraints, introduced by Backofen et al. in [BNS02] denoted as the MRSO problem. The problem is known to be…
