  1. Prediction of human cell response to anti-cancer drugs (compounds) from microarray data is a challenging problem, due to the noise properties of microarrays as well as the high variance of living cell response...

    Authors: Tsuyoshi Kato, Yukio Murata, Koh Miura, Kiyoshi Asai, Paul B Horton, Koji Tsuda and Wataru Fujibuchi
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2006 7(Suppl 1):S4
  2. We have recently introduced a predictive framework for studying gene transcriptional regulation in simpler organisms using a novel supervised learning algorithm called GeneClass. GeneClass is motivated by the ...

    Authors: Anshul Kundaje, Manuel Middendorf, Mihir Shah, Chris H Wiggins, Yoav Freund and Christina Leslie
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2006 7(Suppl 1):S5
  3. Elucidating gene regulatory networks is crucial for understanding normal cell physiology and complex pathologic phenotypes. Existing computational methods for the genome-wide "reverse engineering" of such netw...

    Authors: Adam A Margolin, Ilya Nemenman, Katia Basso, Chris Wiggins, Gustavo Stolovitzky, Riccardo Dalla Favera and Andrea Califano
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2006 7(Suppl 1):S7
  4. Sequence homologs are an important source of information about proteins. Amino acid profiles, representing the position-specific mutation probabilities found in profiles, are a richer encoding of biological se...

    Authors: Sean O'Rourke, Gal Chechik, Robin Friedman and Eleazar Eskin
    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2006 7(Suppl 1):S8
  5. Support Vector Machines (SVMs) – using a variety of string kernels – have been successfully applied to biological sequence classification problems. While SVMs achieve high classification accuracy they lack int...

    Citation: BMC Bioinformatics 2006 7(Suppl 1):S9
  6. Biologists regularly search DNA or protein databases for sequences that share an evolutionary or functional relationship with a given query sequence. Traditional search methods, such as BLAST and PSI-BLAST, fo...
