Profile hidden Markov models

Introducing Busy Customer Portfolio Using Hidden Markov Model

Due to the effective role of Markov models in customer relationship management (CRM), there is a lack of comprehensive literature review which contains all related literatures. In this paper the focus is on academic databases to find all the articles that had been published in 2011 and earlier. One hundred articles were identified and reviewed to find direct relevance for applying Markov models...

A generalization of Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) using one-by-one dependency between sequences

The Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) can be poor at capturing dependency between observations because of the statistical assumptions it makes. To overcome this limitation, the dependency between residues in a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) which is the representative of a PHMM can be combined with the PHMM. Based on the fact that sequences appearing in the final MSA are written based on th...

Multiple Word Alignment with Profile Hidden Markov Models

Profile hidden Markov models (Profile HMMs) are specific types of hidden Markov models used in biological sequence analysis. We propose the use of Profile HMMs for word-related tasks. We test their applicability to the tasks of multiple cognate alignment and cognate set matching, and find that they work well in general for both tasks. On the latter task, the Profile HMM method outperforms avera...

Profile Comparer: a program for scoring and aligning profile hidden Markov models

UNLABELLED Profile Comparer (PRC) is a stand-alone program for scoring and aligning profile hidden Markov models (HMMs) of protein families. PRC can read models produced by SAM and HMMER, two popular profile HMM packages, as well as PSI-BLAST checkpoint files. This application note provides a brief description of the profile-profile algorithm used by PRC. AVAILABILITY The C source code licens...
