In recent years, this method has become as a very popular technique and its field of application has been notably increased. Many bioinformatic problems have been solved with this technique. In this paper a new scan fuzzy method is proposed. The behaviors of classic and fuzzy scan techniques are studied with simulated data. ROC curves are calculated, being demonstrated the superiority of the fuzzy scan technique.}, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {1}, number = {5}, year = {2007}, pages = {1393 - 1397}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/15070}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/5}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 5, 2007}, }
