As far as I remember GOR is based on the physical properties of amino
acids and not on a statistical approach, as is Chou/Fasman. However,
both are fairly unreliable compared to "modern" methods, such as
PredictProtein (send an email with the word "help" in the subject/body
to predictprotein at embl-heidelberg.de).
