A weighted string kernel for protein fold recognition

Abstract Background Alignment-free methods for comparing protein sequences have proved to be viable alternatives to approaches that first rely on an alignment of the sequences to be compared. Much work however need to be done before those methods provide reliable fold recognition for proteins whose...
