  1. a. The method proposed in this study. Proteins were classified based on the least weighted Euclidean distance (WED).
  2. b. For each protein, only the protein itself was used to calculate residue composition.
  3. c. For each protein, 50 homologous proteins were included in the calculation of residue composition.
  4. d. For each protein, 50 homologous proteins were included in the calculation of residue composition. Feature-selection was used to select a set of residues and di-peptides that were useful for the prediction of OMPs. Weighted Euclidean distances were then calculated based on the composition of the selected set.
