Abstract

We evaluated methods of protein classification that use kernels built from BLAST output parameters. Protein sequences were represented as vectors of parameters (e.g. similarity scores) determined with respect to a reference set, and used in Support Vector Machines (SVM) as well as in simple nearest neighbor (1NN) classification. We found, using ROC analysis, that aggregate representations that use aggregate similarities with respect to a few object classes, were as accurate as the full vectorial representations, and that a jury of 6 1NN-based aggregate classifiers performed as well as the best SVM classifiers, while they required much less computational time. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
