On the protein folding problem in 2D-triangular lattices
In this paper, we present a novel approximation algorithm to solve the protein folding problem in HP model. Our algorithm is polynomial in terms of the length of the given HP string. The expected approximation ratio of our algorithm is [Formula: see text] for n ≥ 6, where n(2) is the total number of...

description | In this paper, we present a novel approximation algorithm to solve the protein folding problem in HP model. Our algorithm is polynomial in terms of the length of the given HP string. The expected approximation ratio of our algorithm is [Formula: see text] for n ≥ 6, where n(2) is the total number of H’s in a given HP string. The expected approximation ratio tends to reach 1 for large values of n. Hence our algorithm is expected to perform very well for larger HP strings. |
