Abstract:Segmentation algorithms differ from clustering algorithms with regard to how to deal with the physical location of genes throughout the sequence. Therefore, segments have to keep the original positions of consecutive genes, which is not a constraint for clustering algorithms. It has been proven that exist functional relations among neighbour-genes, so the localization of the boundaries between these functionally similar groups of genes has turned out an important challenge. In this paper, we present an evoluti… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
