  • Title: A 9-state hidden Markov model using protein secondary structure information for protein fold recognition.
    Author: Lee SY, Lee JY, Jung KS, Ryu KH.
    Journal: Comput Biol Med; 2009 Jun; 39(6):527-34. PubMed ID: 19394594.
    Abstract:
    In protein fold recognition, the main disadvantage of hidden Markov models (HMMs) is the employment of large-scale model architectures which require large data sets and high computational resources for training. Also, HMMs must consider sequential information about secondary structures of proteins, to improve prediction performance and reduce model parameters. Therefore, we propose a novel method for protein fold recognition based on a hidden Markov model, called a 9-state HMM. The method can (i) reduce the number of states using secondary structure information about proteins for each fold and (ii) recognize protein folds more accurately than other HMMs.
