FISim: A new similarity measure between transcription factor binding sites based on the fuzzy integral

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Regulatory motifs describe sets of related transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) and can be represented as position frequency matrices (PFMs). De novo identification of TFBSs is a crucial problem in computational biology which i...
