چکیده
Understanding the structure, dynamics and function of proteins strongly parallels the mapping of words to meaning in natural language. Availability of large amounts of text in digital form has led to the convergence of linguistics with computational science, and has resulted in applications such as information retrieval and document summarization. In direct analogy, transformation of biology by data availability opened the door to convergence with computer science and information technology. In this chapter, we review applications of text and speech technologies in computational biology with particular emphasis on proteins.

The Layer-Oriented Approach to Declarative Languages for Biological Modeling
We present a new approach to modeling languages for computational biology, which we call the layer-oriented approach. The approach stems from the observation that many diverse biological phenomena are described using a small set of mathematical formalisms (e.g. differential equations), while at the same time different domains and subdomains of computational biology require that models are struc...

Ab initio calculations were employed to investigate nitrogen inversion as a configuration change that can supply an infinitely useful switchable control mechanism for some <span style="letter-sp...
متن کاملSome improvements in fuzzy turing machines
In this paper, we improve some previous definitions of fuzzy-type Turing machines to obtain degrees of accepting and rejecting in a computational manner. We apply a BFS-based search method and some level’s upper bounds to propose a computational process in calculating degrees of accepting and rejecting. Next, we introduce the class of Extended Fuzzy Turing Machines equipped with indeterminacy s...
متن کاملDesign, Modeling and Computational Analysis of crRNA to Regulate MetastamiR-10b and MetastamiR-126 in Post-transcriptional Level by CRISPR-C2c2 (Cas13a) Technique
Introduction: Metastasis is one the most important causes of mortality in cancer patients. Recent studies have shown the metastatic potential of a specific group of microRNAs called metastamirs. miR-126 is shown to be correlated with the colorectal liver metastasis. Also, overexpression of miR-10b has been reported in metastatic breast cancer. Therefore, down regulation of these miRNAs at tra...
