| Research Abstract |
Prediction of the binding ability of antigen peptides to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules plays an important role in vaccine development. A key to such prediction is to maximize the entropy of information obtained from the the binding ability. This problem can be formulated as a maximization of the Sum of Ratios Problem. In this study, two kinds of algorithms which use linear relaxation were proposed to such a Sum of Linear Ratios Problem, that is an approximation of general Sum of Ratios Problem. The following results have been obtained in the numerical experiments.
1) The new algorithm takes a 12% CPU time of the existing methods on average. 2) The proposed algorithm finds an optimal solution of the Sum of Linear Ratios Problem with 60 ratios in about less than 14 minutes (CPU time).
These numerical results indicate that the proposed algorithms are much superior to theses existing algorithms.
