Abstract:
Protein structure alignment has become an important strategy by which to identify evolutionary relationships between protein sequences. Several alignment tools are currently available for online comparison of protein structures. In this paper, we propose a parallel protein structure alignment service based on the Hadoop distribution framework. This service includes a protein structure alignment algorithm, a refinement algorithm, and a MapReduce programming model. The refinement algorithm refines the result of alignment. To process vast numbers of protein structures in parallel, the alignment a

Abstract:
We describe an exhaustive and greedy algorithm for improving the accuracy of multiple sequence alignment. A simple progressive alignment approach is employed to provide initial alignments. The initial alignment is then iteratively optimized against an objective function. For any working alignment, the optimization involves three operations: insertions, deletions and shuffles of gaps. The optimization is exhaustive since the algorithm applies the above operations to all eligible positions of an alignment. It is also greedy since only the operation that gives the best improving objective score w

Abstract:
Algorithms that minimize putative synapomorphy in an alignment cannot be directly implemented since trivial cases with concatenated sequences would be selected because they would imply a minimum number of events to be explained (e.g., a single insertion/deletion would be required to explain divergence among two sequences). Therefore, indirect measures to approach parsimony need to be implemented. In this paper, we thoroughly present a Global Criterion for Sequence Alignment (GLOCSA) that uses a scoring function to globally rate multiple alignments aiming to produce matrices that minimize the n

Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) structures can be viewed as a special kind of strings where characters in a string can bond with each other.

In this paper, by adopting the model introduced in Wang and Zhang,19 we propose two algorithms to attack the question of aligning multiple RNA structures. Our methods are to reduce the multiple RNA structure alignment problem to the problem of aligning two RNA structure alignments. Meanwhile, we will show that

Ribonuclic acid (RNA) enjoys increasing interest in molecular biology; despite this interest fundamental algorithms are lacking, e.g. for identifying local motifs. As proteins, RNA molecules have a distinctive structure. Therefore, in addition to sequence information, structure plays an important part in assessing the similarity of RNAs. Furthermore, common sequence-structure features in two or several RNA molecules are often only spatially local, where possibly large parts of the molecules are dissimilar.

Abstract:
We present and compare various methods for computing word alignments using statistical or heuristic models. We consider the five alignment models presented in Brown, Della Pietra, Della Pietra, and Mercer (1993), the hidden Markov alignment model, smoothing techniques, and refinements. These statistical models are compared with two heuristic models based on the Dice coefficient. We present different methods for combining word alignments to perform a symmetrization of directed statistical alignment models. As evaluation criterion, we use the quality of the resulting Viterbi alignment compared t

Abstract:
A new algorithm for multiple alignment of nucleotide sequences of MAHDS has been developed. A statistically significant multiple alignment of promoter sequences from the human genome was first created using this algorithm. Based on the constructed alignments, 25 classes of promoter sequences were created with the volume of each class exceeding 100 sequences. The classes of promoters can be used to search for promoter sequences in eukaryotic genomes. promoter, class, dynamic programming, human genome.

Abstract:
Ontology provides a shared vocabulary of a domain by formally representing the meaning of its concepts, the properties they possess, and the relations among them, which is the state-of-the-art knowledge modeling technique. However, the ontologies in the same domain could differ in conceptual modeling and granularity level, which yields the ontology heterogeneity problem. To enable data and knowledge transfer, share, and reuse between two intelligent systems, it is important to bridge the semantic gap between the ontologies through the ontology matching technique.

Abstract:
Given two genomic DNA sequences, the syntenic alignment problem is to compute an ordered list of subsequences for each sequence such that the corresponding subsequence pairs exhibit a high degree of similarity. Syntenic alignments are useful in comparing genomic DNA from related species and in identifying conserved genes. In this paper, we present a parallel algorithm for computing syntenic alignments that runs in [Formula: see text] time, where m and n are the respective lengths of the two genomic sequences, and p is the number of processors used. Our algorithm is time optimal with respect to

Abstract Motivation With the increasing availability of 3D-data, the focus of comparative bioinformatic analysis is shifting from protein sequence alignments toward more content-rich 3D-alignments.

Abstract:
Over the past decades, a large number of complex optimization problems have been widely addressed through multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs), and the knee solutions of the Pareto front (PF) are most likely to be fitting for the decision maker (DM) without any user preferences. This work investigates the ontology matching problem, which is a challenge in the semantic web (SW) domain. Due to the complex heterogeneity between two different ontologies, it is arduous to get an excellent alignment that meets all DMs’ demands. To this end, a popular MOEA, i.e., nondominated sorting geneti

Abstract:
Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a ubiquitous problem in computational biology. Although it is NP-hard to find an optimal solution for an arbitrary number of sequences, due to the importance of this problem researchers are trying to push the limits of exact algorithms further. Since MSA can be cast as a classical path finding problem, it is attracting a growing number of AI researchers interested in heuristic search algorithms as a challenge with actual practical relevance. In this paper, we first review two previous, complementary lines of research. Based on Hirschberg's algorithm, Dynami

This brief presents a wafer alignment algorithm with reduced sensor number that obtains the relative distance of the wafer center and the robot hand. By ‘reduced number’, in spite of smaller number of sensors than the conventional method, we mean an improved method which achieves the similar results to pre-existing algorithms. Indeed, it can be designed with only three sensor data, less than four sensors of the conventional algorithm. Thus, some advantages of the proposed alignment algorithm include that it can be designed with low cost and less computing power. The proposed alignment algorith

Abstract:
Subsequent duplication events are responsible for the evolution of the minisatellite maps. Alignment of two minisatellite maps should therefore take these duplication events into account, in addition to the well-known edit operations. All algorithms for computing an optimal alignment of two maps, including the one presented here, first deduce the costs of optimal duplication scenarios for all substrings of the given maps. Then, they incorporate the pre-computed costs in the alignment recurrence. However, all previous algorithms addressing this problem are dependent on the number of distinct ma

The method employs a quadratic-time dynamic programming algorithm for aligning columns and column pairs of the multiple alignments in the blocks. Unlike many other tools that can perform pairwise alignment of either single sequences or structures only, BlockMatch takes into account the characteristics of all the sequences in the blocks along with their consensus structures during the alignment process,

In this paper, a conventional Strapdown Inertial Navigation System (SINS) alignment method on a disturbed base is analysed. A novel method with an attitude tracking idea is proposed for the rocking base alignment. It is considered in this method that the alignment algorithm should track the rocking base attitude real changes in the alignment process, but not excessively restrain disturbance. According to this idea, a rapid alignment algorithm is devised for the rocking base. In the algorithm, coarse alignment is carried out within 30 s in the inertial frame with alignment precision less than 2
