Deep generative modeling for biological sequences presents a unique challenge in reconciling the bias-variance trade-off between explicit biological insight and model flexibility. The deep manifold sampler was recently proposed as a means…
Sequences of nucleotides (for DNA and RNA) or amino acids (for proteins) are central objects in biology. Among the most important computational problems is that of sequence alignment, i.e. arranging sequences from different organisms in…
This paper proposes Genetic Algorithm with Border Trades (GAB), a novel modification of the standard genetic algorithm that enhances exploration by incorporating new chromosome patterns in the breeding process. This approach significantly…
We describe an new algorithm for visualizing an alignment of biological sequences according to a probabilistic model of evolution. The resulting data array is readily interpreted by the human eye and amenable to digital image techniques. We…
A new set of DNA base-nucleic acid codes and their hypercomplex number representation have been introduced for taking the probability of each nucleotide into full account. A new scoring system has been proposed to suit the hypercomplex…
Progressive methods offer efficient and reasonably good solutions to the multiple sequence alignment problem. However, resulting alignments are biased by guide-trees, especially for relatively distant sequences. We propose MSARC, a new…
Manifold learning methods are an invaluable tool in today's world of increasingly huge datasets. Manifold learning algorithms can discover a much lower-dimensional representation (embedding) of a high-dimensional dataset through non-linear…
Assessing the significance of alignment scores of optimally aligned DNA or amino acid sequences can be achieved via the knowledge of the score distribution of random sequences. But this requires obtaining the distribution in the…
Motivation: Protein-to-genome alignment is critical to annotating genes in non-model organisms. While there are a few tools for this purpose, all of them were developed over ten years ago and did not incorporate the latest advances in…
In response to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, advanced automated technologies have emerged as valuable tools to aid healthcare professionals in managing an increased workload by improving radiology report generation and prognostic…
Given two rooted phylogenetic trees on the same set of taxa X, the Maximum Agreement Forest problem (MAF) asks to find a forest that is, in a certain sense, common to both trees and has a minimum number of components. The Maximum Acyclic…
Sequence alignment is common nowadays as it is used in many fields to determine how closely two sequences are related and at times to see how little they differ. In computational biology / Bioinformatics, there are many algorithms developed…
Recent advances in large language model (LLM) embeddings have enabled powerful representations for biological data, but most applications to date focus on gene-level information. We present one of the first systematic frameworks to generate…
The Minimal Ancestral Deviation (MAD) method is a recently introduced procedure for estimating the root of a phylogenetic tree, based only on the shape and branch lengths of the tree. The method is loosely derived from the midpoint rooting…
Achieving accurate human identification through RF imaging has been a persistent challenge, primarily attributed to the limited aperture size and its consequent impact on imaging resolution. The existing imaging solution enables tasks such…
Network alignment (NA) aims to find a node mapping between molecular networks of different species that identifies topologically or functionally similar network regions. Analogous to genomic sequence alignment, NA can be used to transfer…
The Maximum Agreement Forest (Maf) problem is a well-studied problem in evolutionary biology, which asks for a largest common subforest of a given collection of phylogenetic trees with identical leaf label-set. However, the previous work…
This work presents a novel Bayesian framework for unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) in medical image segmentation. While prior works have explored this clinically significant task using various strategies of domain alignment, they often…
We present efficient algorithms for computing a maximum agreement forest (MAF) of a pair of multifurcating (nonbinary) rooted trees. Our algorithms match the running times of the currently best algorithms for the binary case. The size of an…
A variety of methods have been proposed for structure similarity calculation, which are called structure alignment or superposition. One major shortcoming in current structure alignment algorithms is in their inherent design, which is based…
