An important goal in bioinformatics is determining the homology and function of proteins from their sequences. Pairwise sequence similarity algorithms are often employed for this ...
Abstract. The detection of vascular bifurcations in retinal fundus images is important for finding signs of various cardiovascular diseases. We propose a novel method to detect su...
Background: Computational protein annotation methods occasionally introduce errors. Falsepositive (FP) errors are annotations that are mistakenly associated with a protein. Such f...
We present a novel approach to the problem of detection of visual similarity between a template image, and patches in a given image. The method is based on the computation of a lo...
When given a small sample, we show that classification with SVM can be considerably enhanced by using a kernel function learned from the training data prior to discrimination. Thi...
