Constraint Programming Approach to the Protein Structure Prediction Problem
- Abstract
-
Protein Structure Prediction is one of the challenges
for modern science. In the talk is presented an unusual
methodology, based on constraint (logic) programming, to
predict ab-initio the tertiary structure of a protein
sequence, given only the primary sequence. Constraint
techniques allow to balance accuracy and speed of the
method and provide an interesting framework for
the developement of new competitive prediction tools.
