Constraint Programming Approach to the Protein Structure Prediction Problem

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.
