The protein structure prediction (PSP) problem is concerned with the prediction of the folded, native, tertiary structure of a protein given its sequence of amino acids. It is a challenging and computationally open problem, as proven by the numerous methodological attempts and the research effort applied to it in the last few years. The potential energy functions used in the literature to evaluate the conformation of a protein are based on the calculations of two different interaction energies: ...[more]
