We recently developed an R package kaos, which can be used to build fractals from sequences of symbols. These fractals are based on the Chaos Game Representation (CGR), which is a recurrent iterative function system. While CGR has been used mainly for genome sequence encoding and classification in the context of bioinformatics, we modified it…

The Gesellschaft für Klassifikation (GfKl) Data Science Society was founded in 1977 to develop research activities related to the classification and ordering of data, to the…
Our paper has been accepted in BioData Mining: Spänig S, Heider D: Encodings and models for antimicrobial peptide classification for multi-resistant pathogens. BioData Mining 2019, 12:7. (Link) Abstract Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are part of the inherent immune system. In fact, they occur in almost all organisms including, e.g., plants, animals, and humans. Remarkably, they show…
