The document discusses different approaches for transcription factor-DNA binding prediction including k-mer based models using fixed-length k-mers, k-mers with mismatches, and regular expressions, as well as PWM based models using MEME and MAST. It evaluates various classifiers and tuning parameters such as k-mer length and number of attributes on different datasets, finding that classifier choice, k-mer length, and attribute selection all impact accuracy. Additional work was done on one dataset to build a new combined k-mer and PWM model.
