Classification of Protein Sequences using the Growing Self-Organizing Map

Protein sequence analysis is an important task in bioinformatics. The classification of protein sequences into groups is beneficial for further analysis of the structures and roles of a particular group of protein in biological process. It also allows an unknown or newly found sequence to be identif...
