Improved gravitation field algorithm and its application in hierarchical clustering. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Gravitation field algorithm (GFA) is a new optimization algorithm which is based on an imitation of natural phenomena. GFA can do well both for searching global minimum and multi-minima in computational biology.

On one approximate method for recovering a function from its autocorrelation function
Background. When solving many physical and technical problems, a situation arises when only operators (functionals) from the objects under study (signals, images, etc.) are available for observations (measurements). It is required to restore the object

A new multi-offspring crossover operator for genetic algorithm to facilitate the traveling salesman problem [PDF]
This research work provides a detailed working principle and official analysis of a multi-offspring crossover operator. The proposed operator explains the true theory of survival-of-fittest using the foundation of evolutionary theories of biology and ...

Selection of key sequence-based features for prediction of essential genes in 31 diverse bacterial species. [PDF]
Genes that are indispensable for survival are essential genes. Many features have been proposed for computational prediction of essential genes. In this paper, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method was used to screen key sequence ...

Universal relations in the self-assembly of proteins and RNA [PDF]
Concepts rooted in physics are becoming increasingly important in biology as we transition to an era in which quantitative descriptions of all processes from molecular to cellular level are needed. In this essay I discuss two unexpected findings of universal behavior, uncommon in biology, in the self-assembly of proteins and RNA.
