Abstract
In this paper we develop data mining techniques to predict 3D contact potentials among protein residues (or amino acids) based on the hierarchical nucleation-propagation model of protein folding. We apply a hybrid approach, using a hidden Markov model to extract folding initiation sites, and then apply association mining to discover contact potentials. The new hybrid approach achieves accuracy results better than those reported previously.
