چکیده

In this paper a technique to improve protein secondary structure prediction is proposed. The approach is based on the idea of combining the results of a set of prediction tools, choosing the most correct parts of each prediction. The correctness of the resulting prediction is measured referring to accuracy parameters used in several editions of CASP. Experimental evaluations validating the proposed approach are also reported.

Protein Secondary Structure Prediction: a Literature Review with Focus on Machine Learning Approaches

DNA sequence, containing all genetic traits is not a functional entity. Instead, it transfers to protein sequences by transcription and translation processes. This protein sequence takes on a 3D structure later, which is a functional unit and can manage biological interactions using the information encoded in DNA. Every life process one can figure is undertaken by proteins with specific functio...

Protein Secondary Structure Prediction with Hydrophobicity and Hydrophobic Moment

Protein secondary structure prediction has been satisfactorily performed by machine learning techniques such as support vector machines (SVM’s). We discuss a special technique to include hyrophobicity information to further improve the classification results. Hydrophobicity or hydrophobic moment measure of each amino acid is included within a given window length in the protein secondary structu...

Secondary Structure Prediction Based on Statistical Mechanics

Recent genome science has been developing from two sides: one is biological evolution due to mutation of DNA sequence and the other is biological function of protein molecules formed according to amino acid sequences. We have devoted ourselves to elucidate the mechanism of protein folding, and to develop the method for protein structure prediction [1, 2]. Our method has successfully yielded the...

Voting for the Prediction of Protein Secondary Structure and Its Evaluation

Protein secondary structure prediction is one of the central topics in proteome analysis. Computational methods, developed for the prediction (classification) of protein secondary structures, have been improved substantially since 1990s, allowing us to investigate some of the computational classifiers and attempt to integrate them through voting. The study tries to evaluate whether and how much...
