Abstract

Various grammars have been used to model RNA structures. This paper gives an overview of the application of stochastic context-free grammar (SCFG) to model RNA structures. It starts with a brief introduction to formal grammars. Then, it defines stochastic contextfree grammar (SCFG). Next, it presents several examples, which appear in the literature, of stochastic context-free grammars to model RNA sequences. Finally, it presents the conclusion.
