Research Interests
*Computational biology; *Protein structure; *Machine learning; *Data mining; *Structural alphabet
I am interested in the problem of predicting the tertiary structure of protein from its amino acid sequence. In order to achieve that I have used structural alphabet obtained from structural elements and physicochemical properties. In these fields I am working mostly with data mining (such as feature selection, clustering and Association Rule Mining) and probabilistic techniques (such as HMM).
