Revisiting motif finding: do bi-objective metaheuristics surpass single-objective metaheuristics? [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics
Background The discovery of DNA motifs is essential for studying gene expression and function in many biological systems. Most existing algorithms for motif detection rely on a single optimization criterion or objective function.
