MOTIVATION: Although many machine learning techniques have been proposed for distinguishing miRNA hairpins from other stem-loop sequences, most of the current methods use supervised learning, which requires a very good set of positive and negative ex...

Two avenues to understanding gene function are complementary and often overlapping: experimental work and computational prediction. While experimental annotation generally produces high-quality annotations, it is low throughput. Conversely, computati...
MOTIVATION: DNA methylation is an intensely studied epigenetic mark, yet its functional role is incompletely understood. Attempts to quantitatively associate average DNA methylation to gene expression yield poor correlations outside of the well-under...

Searching genomes to locate noncoding RNA genes with known secondary structure is an important problem in bioinformatics. In general, the secondary structure of a searched noncoding RNA is defined with a structure model constructed from the structura...
