Biological applications of support vector machines
نویسنده
چکیده
One of the major tasks in bioinformatics is the classification and prediction of biological data. With the rapid increase in size of the biological databanks, it is essential to use computer programs to automate the classification process. At present, the computer programs that give the best prediction performance are support vector machines (SVMs). This is because SVMs are designed to maximise the margin to separate two classes so that the trained model generalises well on unseen data. Most other computer programs implement a classifier through the minimisation of error occurred in training, which leads to poorer generalisation. Because of this, SVMs have been widely applied to many areas of bioinformatics including protein function prediction, protease functional site recognition, transcription initiation site prediction and gene expression data classification. This paper will discuss the principles of SVMs and the applications of SVMs to the analysis of biological data, mainly protein and DNA sequences.

Mining Biological Repetitive Sequences Using Support Vector Machines and Fuzzy SVM
Structural repetitive subsequences are most important portion of biological sequences, which play crucial roles on corresponding sequence’s fold and functionality. Biggest class of the repetitive subsequences is “Transposable Elements” which has its own sub-classes upon contexts’ structures. Many researches have been performed to criticality determine the structure and function of repetitiv...

The limiting velocity in open channels to prevent long-term sedimentation is predicted in this paper using a powerful soft computing technique known as Extreme Learning Machines (ELM). The ELM is a single Layer Feed-forward Neural Network (SLFNN) with a high level of training speed. The dimensionless parameter of limiting velocity which is known as the densimetric Froude number (Fr) is predicte...
