Abstract
Prediction of protein secondary structure is considered to be an important step toward elucidating the three-dimensional structure and function of proteins. We have developed a multimodal neural network (MNN) to predict protein secondary structure. The MNN is composed of several subclassifiers for single-state predictions using neural networks and a decision neural network (DNN). Each subclassifier employs a number of subnetworks to predict the single-state of the secondary structure individually and produces the final results by majority decision. The DNN uses a three-layer neural network to produce the final overall prediction from the outputs of the single-state predictions. The MNN gives an overall accuracy of 71.1% with corresponding Matthews correlation coefficients of CH = 0.62 and CE = 0.53. The prediction test is based on a database of 126 nonhomologous protein sequences.
