Universal similarity measure for comparing protein structures.
We introduce a new variant of the root mean square distance (RMSD) for comparing protein structures whose range of values is independent of protein size. This new dimensionless measure (relative RMSD, or RRMSD) is zero between identical structures and one between structures that are as globally dissimilar as an average pair of random polypeptides of respective sizes. The RRMSD probability distr...
متن کاملsimilarity measure for two densities
scott and szewczyk in technometrics, 2001, have introduced a similarity measure for twodensities f1 and f2 , by1, 21 21 1 2 2( , ), ,f fsim f ff f f f< >=< >< >wheref1, f2 f1(x, θ1)f2(x, θ2)dx.+∞−∞< >=∫sim(f1, f2) has some appropriate properties that can be suitable measures for the similarity of f1 and f2 .however, due to some restrictions on the value of parameters and the kind of densities, ...
متن کاملMeasuring the similarity of protein structures by means of the universal similarity metric
MOTIVATION As an increasing number of protein structures become available, the need for algorithms that can quantify the similarity between protein structures increases as well. Thus, the comparison of proteins' structures, and their clustering accordingly to a given similarity measure, is at the core of today's biomedical research. In this paper, we show how an algorithmic information theory i...
متن کاملA novel graph-based similarity measure for 2D chemical structures.
In this paper, we propose a graph-based method to measure the similarity between chemical compounds described by 2D form. Our main idea is to measure the similarity between two compounds based on edges, nodes, and connectivity of their common subgraphs. We applied the proposed similarity measure in combination with a clustering method to more than eleven thousand compounds in the chemical compo...
متن کاملAn Intelligent System for Comparing Protein Structures
An approach to protein structure comparison is presented which uses techniques of artificial intelligence (AI) to generate a mapping between two protein structures. The approach proceeds by first identifying the seed of a possible mapping, and then searching for ways to extend the seed by incorporating corresponding elements from the two proteins. Correspondence is judged using heuristic functi...
