In recent years, specific evaluation metrics for time series anomaly detection algorithms have been developed to handle the limitations of the classical precision and recall. However, such metrics are heuristically built as an aggregate of…
Ancestral sequence reconstruction is a key task in computational biology. It consists in inferring a molecular sequence at an ancestral species of a known phylogeny, given descendant sequences at the tip of the tree. In addition to its many…
Background Nucleotide sequences contain multiple codes responsible for organism's functioning and structure. They can be investigated by various signal processing methods. These techniques are well suited for indication of frequently…
Probabilistic models often have parameters that can be translated, scaled, permuted, or otherwise transformed without changing the model. These symmetries can lead to strong correlation and multimodality in the posterior distribution over…
Background:Typically, proteins perform key biological functions by interacting with each other. As a consequence, predicting which protein pairs interact is a fundamental problem. Experimental methods are slow, expensive, and may be error…
Sequence-based protein homology detection has been extensively studied and so far the most sensitive method is based upon comparison of protein sequence profiles, which are derived from multiple sequence alignment (MSA) of sequence homologs…
The evolutionary trajectory of a protein through sequence space is constrained by function and three-dimensional (3D) structure. Residues in spatial proximity tend to co-evolve, yet attempts to invert the evolutionary record to identify…
Mutual correlation between segments of DNA or protein sequences can be detected by Smith-Waterman local alignments. We present a statistical analysis of alignment of such sequences, based on a recent scaling theory. A new fidelity measure…
Traditional pairwise sequence alignment is based on matching individual samples from two sequences, under time monotonicity constraints. However, in many application settings matching subsequences (segments) instead of individual samples…
The function of a protein is defined by its interaction partners. Thus, topology-driven network alignment of the protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks of two species should uncover similar interaction patterns and allow identification…
This paper presents a novel Differential Evolution algorithm for protein folding optimization that is applied to a three-dimensional AB off-lattice model. The proposed algorithm includes two new mechanisms. A local search is used to improve…
Distance-based approaches in phylogenetics such as Neighbor-Joining are a fast and popular approach for building trees. These methods take pairs of sequences from them construct a value that, in expectation, is additive under a stochastic…
This study demonstrates that incorporating a consistency heuristic into the point-matching algorithm \cite{yerebakan2023hierarchical} improves robustness in matching anatomical locations across pairs of medical images. We validated our…
Identification and alignment of three-dimensional folding of proteins may yield useful information about relationships too remote to be detected by conventional methods, such as sequence comparison, and may potentially lead to prediction of…
Is protein secondary structure primarily determined by local interactions between residues closely spaced along the amino acid backbone, or by non-local tertiary interactions? To answer this question we have measured the entropy densities…
We propose a family of very efficient hierarchical indexing schemes for ungapped, score matrix-based similarity search in large datasets of short (4-12 amino acid) protein fragments. This type of similarity search has importance in both…
Predicting protein structure from the amino acid sequence has been a challenge with theoretical and practical significance in biophysics. Despite the recent progresses elicited by improved residue-residue contact prediction, contact-based…
Despite the constant evolution of similarity searching research, it continues to face the same challenges stemming from the complexity of the data, such as the curse of dimensionality and computationally expensive distance functions.…
High order networks are weighted hypergraphs col- lecting relationships between elements of tuples, not necessarily pairs. Valid metric distances between high order networks have been defined but they are difficult to compute when the…
A profile comparison method with position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM) is one of the most accurate alignment methods. Currently, cosine similarity and correlation coefficient are used as scoring functions of dynamic programming to…
