چکیده

Dead-end elimination (DEE) is a powerful theorem for selecting optimal protein side-chain orientations from a large set of discrete conformations. The present work describes a new approach to dead-end elimination that effectively splits conformational space into partitions to more efficiently eliminate dead-ending rotamers. Split DEE makes it possible to complete protein design calculations that were previously intractable due to the combinatorial explosion of intermediate conformations generated during the convergence process. c © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Theoretical and algorithmical optimization of the dead-end elimination theorem.

The dead-end elimination theorem has proved to be a powerful method to reduce the theoretically accessible conformational space when modeling protein side chains by using a rotameric representation of possible conformations. In this work, theoretical details about variants to the original criterion are discussed. We also provide information on how the equations can be algorithmically implemente...

Dead-End Elimination for Weighted CSP

Soft neighborhood substitutability (SNS) is a powerful technique to automatically detect and prune dominated solutions in combinatorial optimization. Recently, it has been shown in [26] that enforcing partial SNS (PSNS) during search can be worthwhile in the context of Weighted Constraint Satisfaction Problems (WCSP). However, for some problems, especially with large domains, PSNS is still too ...

Dead-End Elimination with Backbone Flexibility

MOTIVATION Dead-End Elimination (DEE) is a powerful algorithm capable of reducing the search space for structure-based protein design by a combinatorial factor. By using a fixed backbone template, a rotamer library, and a potential energy function, DEE identifies and prunes rotamer choices that are provably not part of the Global Minimum Energy Conformation (GMEC), effectively eliminating the m...

Effectiveness of Optimizing Compilation for CLP(R)

Constraint Logic Programming (CLP) languages extend logic programming by allowing constraints from diierent domains such as real numbers or Boolean functions. They have proved to be ideal for expressing problems that require interactive mathematical modelling and complex combinatorial optimization problems. However, CLP languages have mainly been considered as research systems, useful for rapid...

Supplement to “ Dead - End Elimination as a Heuristic for Min - Cut Image Segmentation ”

This article is a supplement to our 2006 ICIP paper, “Dead-End Elimination as a Heuristic for Min-Cut Image Segmentation” [1], which we assume the reader has read. We summarize the proof of the dead-end elimination theorem (due to Desmet et al. [2] and Goldstein [3]), briefly discuss the performance of our current implementation of DEE pairs, show the input images for which timings are referenc...
