Automated Alphabet Reduction Method with Evolutionary Algorithms for Protein ...jaumebp
This paper presents a method for automatically reducing the 20-letter amino acid alphabet used in protein structure prediction to a smaller set of letters without losing important information. The method uses evolutionary algorithms to cluster similar amino acid types together into a reduced alphabet. When applied to two protein structure prediction tasks, the reduced alphabets produced by this automatic method performed as well or better than reduced alphabets designed by human experts or other literature methods. The reduced alphabets provided new insights into protein folding not expected by experts and allowed for faster runtimes when applied to position-specific scoring matrices.

The document provides guidance on effective online political advocacy. It discusses key tools and tactics, beginning with establishing an effective website as the central online focal point. The website should be findable through its domain name and search engine optimization. It also needs to be easily navigable and ensure the tone matches the intended audience. Overall integration of online and offline advocacy is emphasized, along with the importance of persistence and high-quality content. Selling political ideas is compared to marketing consumer products.
- Fizzees are a wearable technology that combines sensors, a processor, battery and screen to track children's physical activity levels and display a virtual pet.
- The virtual pet's health and development depends on the activity levels of the child based on readings from a heart rate monitor and accelerometer.
- Early research with children found they enjoyed caring for their virtual pet and increased their exercise to help their pet grow, indicating Fizzees may be an effective way to motivate children to be more physically active.
