Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a nucleic acid composed of a group of the nucleotides. RNA molecule is essential to all biological systems. The RNA strand folds back into itself during the folding process via hydrogen bonds to build the secondary and tertiary structures. Understanding the biological function of a given RNA molecule is critical to determining its structure. Since the structure of RNA molecules...
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) has important structural and functional roles in the cell and plays roles in many stages of protein synthesis. The structure of RNA largely determines its function. Current physical methods for structure determination are time-consuming and expensive, thus the methods for the computational prediction of structure are necessary. Various algorithms that have been used for RNA...
This paper follows a method to effectively provide useful visualizations to the examination timetabling problem. The results are some interactive visualization that should provide a much more sensible way of analysis, since it requires having to pay more attention for a complete understanding of the data and also, offers more data at the same time frame and space for the schools. We present the analysis...
This paper effectively provides useful visualization techniques for the examination timetabling data. The main aim of this work is to associate user and the scheduler assisted with suitable visualizations. Few visualization methods are adapted over the preprocessing data (raw data) where the users or the timetable designers to learn visually. We have made the graph view effectively with Prefuse visualization...
Current physical methods for RNA structure determination are time consuming and expensive; thus the methods for the computational prediction of structure are necessary. Various algorithms have been used for RNA structure prediction including dynamic programming and meta-heuristic algorithms. This paper proposes a meta-heuristic harmony search algorithm (HSRNAFold) for finding RNA secondary structure...
Recently, we have proposed ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm together with traveling salesman problem (TSP) approach to cluster proteins in protein interaction network (PIN). Our proposal described the general adaptation of ACO to perform the clustering tasks, including the optimal path finding in PIN. In this paper, we focus precisely on the process of finding an optimal path by ACO for the...
In this paper, we proposed an ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm together with traveling salesman problem (TSP) approach to investigate the clustering problem in protein interaction networks (PIN). We named this combination as ACOPIN. The purpose of this work is two-fold. First, to test the efficacy of ACO in clustering PIN and second, to propose the simple generalization of the ACO algorithm...
The space allocation problem particularly in academic institutions is well known as a complex, difficult and time consuming task. In this paper, we discuss the application of the decomposition concept in handling the combinatorial optimization problem such as the university space allocation problem. In applying the decomposition, we introduce the bin and tuple concept. This method is found to simplify...
The research aspiration is to develop a visual framework for the examination timetabling problem. To perform the task we identified visual analytics as a multi-disciplinary field, directly supports the timetable designers, assist with visual metaphors, patterns to make decisions. Here we deemed three stages on the problem domain. It deals with pre-processing, during the processing and post-processing;...
This paper describes a process flow of data pre-processing for computational experiment in analyzing protein interaction networks. The aim of this process flow is to fulfill the requirement of our graph-based algorithm's solution and to ensure that the representation of protein interaction network which consist of nodes and edges are accurate. The raw data is obtained from one of protein interaction...
The university course timetabling is known to be a highly constrained optimization problem. The main difficulty is to obtain a conflict-free schedule within a limited number of timeslots and rooms. Many different approaches, including evolutionary algorithms, tabu search, simulated annealing, and their hybrids are developed for solving many different types of course timetabling problems. The immune...
