Abstract
The Rectangle Tree Grammar (RTG) algorithm is a method for generic RNA secondary structure prediction. Though the flexibility brought by this algorithm is tremendous, a visualized, user-friendly, and easy-to-use interface is still in need. For this purpose, we have built a web-based interface, WebRTG, which simplies the input and visualizes the output of the RTG algorithm. In this thesis, we shall describe the functionality of the RTG algorithm, as well as the implementation details of the WebRTG interface.
