Comparison of site-specific rate-inference methods for protein sequences: empirical Bayesian methods are superior.
The degree to which an amino acid site is free to vary is strongly dependent on its structural and functional importance. An amino acid that plays an essential role is unlikely to change over evolutionary time. Hence, the evolutionary rate at an amino acid site is indicative of how conserved this site is and, in turn, allows evaluation of its importance in maintaining the structure/function of ...
متن کاملInferring Site-Specific Evolutionary Rates: Bayesian Methods are Superior
Not all sites in protein sequences evolve at the same rate during the course of evolution. The working hypothesis assumes that evolutionary conserved sites in a protein sequence point to functionally important regions. Thus, identifying conserved regions in a protein impacts such areas as functional annotation studies, drug design, quaternary structure prediction, and protein biochemistry [1]. ...
متن کاملAn empirical comparison of three inference methods
In this paper, an empirical evaluation of three infer ence methods for uncertain reasoning is presented in the context of Pathfinder, a large expert system for the diagnosis of lymph node pathology. The inference procedures evaluated are (1) Bayes' theorem, a:ssum ing evidence is conditionally independent given each hypothesis, (2) odds-likelihood updating, assuming evidence is conditionally ...

امروزه استفاده از منابع انرژی پراکنده کاربرد وسیعی یافته است . اگر چه این منابع بسیاری از مشکلات شبکه را حل می کنند اما زیاد شدن آنها مسائل فراوانی برای سیستم قدرت به همراه دارد . استفاده از میکروشبکه راه حلی است که علاوه بر استفاده از مزایای منابع انرژی پراکنده برخی از مشکلات ایجاد شده توسط آنها را نیز منتفی می کند . همچنین میکروشبکه ها کیفیت برق و قابلیت اطمینان تامین انرژی مشترکان را افزایش ...
15 صفحه اولon the comparison of keyword and semantic-context methods of learning new vocabulary meaning
the rationale behind the present study is that particular learning strategies produce more effective results when applied together. the present study tried to investigate the efficiency of the semantic-context strategy alone with a technique called, keyword method. to clarify the point, the current study seeked to find answer to the following question: are the keyword and semantic-context metho...
