institute for computational biomedicine: PSIPRED

[ description ]

PSIPRED is a protein secondary structure prediction tool based on position-specific scoring matrices.

"A two-stage neural network is used to predict protein secondary structure based on the position specific scoring matrices generated by PSI-BLAST. Despite the simplicity and convenience of the approach used, the results are found to be superior to those produced by other methods, including the popular PHD methods..."
