Abstract

This paper presents a web platform for the detection of peptidases and motifs search from Merops database. The methodology for peptidases detection uses text mining techniques combined with Support Vector Machines (SVM). Preliminary results using two types of SVMs, the C-Support Vector Classification (C-SVC) and One-class SVM, show the feasibility of the methodology. Despite of the best results obtained with C-SVC the One-class SVM can be an alternative solution if only positive examples are available for training.
