In dot matrix in ab initio methods, one way to reduce the noise in the matrix is to select an appropriate window size of a maximum number of contiguous base matches.

RNA structure prediction is a method that aims to predict the base-pairing structure of a given RNA sequence. The most common approach for predicting RNA secondary structures is based on thermodynamic models. These models decompose a secondary structure into substructures, called nearest-neighbor loops. Topics include: Types of RNA Structures, RNA Secondary Structure Prediction Methods, Ab Initio Approach, Comparative Approach, Performance Evaluation, Limitations of Prediction, Minimum Free – Energy Method & Stochastic Context – Free Grammars, MFOLD and the Use of Energy...
