Abstract

A novel approach is developed for Protein Secondary Structure Prediction based on Bayesian Neural Networks (BNN). BNN usually outperforms the traditional Back-Propagation Neural Networks (BPNN) due to its excellent ability to control the complexity of the model. Results indicates that BNN has an average overall three-state accuracy Q 3 increase 3.65% and 4.01% on the 4-fold cross-validation data sets and TEST data set respectively, comparing with the traditional BPNN. Meanwhile, a so-calledcross-validation choice of starting values is presented, which will shorten the burn-in phase during the MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) simulation substantially.
