Abstract

Since the genomics revolution, bioinformatics has never been so popular. Many researchers have investigated with great success the use of evolutionary computation in bioinformatics [19] for example in the field of protein folding or determining genome sequences. In this paper, instead of using evolutionary computation as a way to provide new and innovative solutions to complex bioinformatics problems, we use genetic programming as a tool to evolve programs that are able to automatically classify research papers as dealing or not with a given protein. In a second part, we show that the attributes that are selected by the genetic programming evolved programs can be used efficiently for proteins classification.
