Evolution Of Models To Predict Protein Function Using Genetic Programming

INTRODUCTIONGenetic Programming (GP) follows the concept put forth by Darwin – “Survival of the Fittest”. Species that evolve and adapt in response to the environment are more likely to survive. GP evolves models that can optimize peptides and proteins for variety of applications. It requires only basic understanding in protein engineering....

System for Identifying Brain Functional Area

Executive SummaryMagnetic Resonance Imaging, or MRI, has revolutionized non-invasive diagnostic methods used in modern medicine. Furthermore, functional MRI (fMRI) has allowed researchers and technicians to observe neuron activity directly by monitoring blood oxygen levels within small areas of the brain. However, steady states of activity must be established...
