Abstract

This chapter describes the experimental results of the MRF-based method for homology detection and fold recognition including alignment accuracy, success rate, running time and contribution of some important features. This chapter also compares the MRF-based method with currently popular PSSM- and HMM-based methods such as HHpred, HHblits and FFAS, in terms of alignment accuracy and success rate of homology detection and fold recognition.
