SBSM-Pro: Support Bio-sequence Machine for Proteins
Proteins play a pivotal role in biological systems. The use of machine learning algorithms for protein classification can assist and even guide biological experiments, offering crucial insights for biotechnological applications. We propose a support bio-sequence machine for proteins, a model specifically designed for biological sequence classification. This model starts with raw sequences and groups amino acids based on their physicochemical properties. It incorporates sequence alignment to measure the similarities between proteins and uses a novel MKL approach to integrate various types of information, utilizing support vector machines for classification prediction. The results indicate that our model demonstrates commendable performance across 10 datasets in terms of the identification of protein function and posttranslational modification. This research not only showcases state-of-the-art work in protein classification but also paves the way for new directions in this domain, representing a beneficial endeavour in the development of platforms tailored for biological sequence classification.
