چکیده

A hybrid population based Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm PFold-P-ACO for protein folding in the HP model is proposed in this paper. This is the first population based ACO algorithm in the bioinformatics. It is shown experimentally that the algorithms achieves on nearly all test sequences at least comparable results to other state of the art algorithms. Compared to the state of the art ACO algorithm PFold-P-ACO obtains slightly better results and is faster on long sequences.

ACO-Based Neighborhoods for Fixed-charge Capacitated Multi-commodity Network Design Problem

The fixed-charge Capacitated Multi-commodity Network Design (CMND) is a well-known problem of both practical and theoretical significance. Network design models represent a wide variety of planning and operation management issues in transportation telecommunication, logistics, production and distribution. In this paper, Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based neighborhoods are proposed for CMND pro...

A HYBRID SUPPORT VECTOR REGRESSION WITH ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM IN ESTIMATION OF SAFETY FACTOR FOR CIRCULAR FAILURE SLOPE

Slope stability is one of the most complex and essential issues for civil and geotechnical engineers, mainly due to life and high economical losses resulting from these failures. In this paper, a new approach is presented for estimating the Safety Factor (SF) for circular failure slope using hybrid support vector regression (SVR) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). The ACO is combined with the S...

Prediction of Protein Backbone Based on the Sliced Lattice Model

In the past decades, a significant number of studies on the prediction of protein 3D tertiary structures have been extensively made. However, the folding rules, the core issue of protein structure prediction, still stay unsolved. Given a target protein with its primary amino acid sequence, the protein backbone structure prediction (PSP) problem is to construct the 3D coordinates of α-carbon ato...

An Improved Ant Colony Optimisation Algorithm for the 2D HP Protein Folding Problem

The prediction of a protein’s structure from its amino-acid sequence is one of the most important problems in computational biology. In the current work, we focus on a widely studied abstraction of this problem, the 2-dimensional hydrophobic-polar (2D HP) protein folding problem. We present an improved version of our recently proposed Ant Colony Optimisation (ACO) algorithm for this -hard combi...
