Abstract
Protein structure prediction (PSP) remains one of the most challenging open problems in structural bioinformatics. Simplified models in terms of lattice structure and energy function have been proposed to ease the computational hardness of this combinatorial optimization problem. In this paper, we describe a clustered meme-based evolutionary approach for PSP using triangular lattice model. Under the framework of memetic algorithm, the proposed method extracts a pool of cultural information from different regions of the search space using data clustering technique. These highly observed local substructures, termed as meme, are then aggregated centrally for further refinements as second stage of evolution. The optimal utilization of 'explore-and-exploit' feature of evolutionary algorithms is ensured by the inherent parallel architecture of the algorithm and subsequent use of cultural information.
