Rules extraction from neural networks applied to the prediction and recognition of prokaryotic promoters
Promoters are DNA sequences located upstream of the gene region and play a central role in gene expression. Computational techniques show good accuracy in gene prediction but are less successful in predicting promoters, primarily because of the high number of false positives that reflect characteris...
