The possibilities of using a genetic algorithm for the prediction of RNA secondary structure were investigated. The algorithm, using the procedure of stepwise selection of the most fit structures (similarly to natural evolution), allows different models of fitness or driving forces determining RNA s
A parallel algorithm for estimating the secondary structure of an RNA molecule is presented in this paper. The mathematical problem to compute an optimal folding based on free-energy minimization is mapped onto a graph planarization problem. In the planarization problem we want to maximize the numbe
