Protein secondary structure prediction based on SVM

Protein structure prediction is one of most important problems in modern computational biology,but protein secondary structure prediction is the foundation for high-level structure prediction.At the present time,there are many methods for protein secondary structure prediction,where one can obtain higher precision of prediction with SVM.The emphasis is put on how to apply SVM to protein secondary structure prediction,and some notes when comparing with other approaches,thus providing reference and inspiration for further study.
