Characterizing Intermediate Conformations in Protein Conformational Space
In this paper we present a novel parallel coordinate based clustering method using Gaussian mixture distribution models to characterize the conformational space of proteins. An algorithm is proposed to detect highly populated regions which may correspond to interesting intermediate states that are difficult to detect experimentally. The data is represented as feature vectors of N dimensions, wh...
متن کاملCategorically-algebraic topology and its applications
This paper introduces a new approach to topology, based on category theory and universal algebra, and called categorically-algebraic (catalg) topology. It incorporates the most important settings of lattice-valued topology, including poslat topology of S.~E.~Rodabaugh, $(L,M)$-fuzzy topology of T.~Kubiak and A.~v{S}ostak, and $M$-fuzzy topology on $L$-fuzzy sets of C.~Guido. Moreover, its respe...
متن کاملOptimal clustering for detecting near-native conformations in protein docking.
Clustering is one of the most powerful tools in computational biology. The conventional wisdom is that events that occur in clusters are probably not random. In protein docking, the underlying principle is that clustering occurs because long-range electrostatic and/or desolvation forces steer the proteins to a low free-energy attractor at the binding region. Something similar occurs in the dock...
متن کاملTopology optimization using regularized intermediate density control
We consider topology optimization of elastic continua. The elasticity tensor is assumed to depend linearly on the design function (density) as in the variable thickness sheet problem. In order to get ``black±white'' design pictures, the intermediate density values are controlled by an explicit constraint. This constraint is regularized by including a compact and linear operator S to guarantee e...
متن کاملQualitative Spatial Reasoning Using Algebraic Topology
Many propositions in spatial and qualitative reasoning can be modelled as regions in phase or con guration spaces Deciding the consistency of k propositions then amounts to deciding the question of whether there exists a point which simultaneously falls into all k corre sponding regions A more di cult problem is to decide whether there is a point which falls only within the given k regions I ca...
