Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy is the second most used technique (after X-ray crystallography) for structural determination of proteins. A computational challenge in this technique involves solving a discrete optimization problem that assigns the resonance frequency to each atom in the protein. This paper introduces LIAN (LInear programming Assignment for NMR), a novel linear programming formulation of the problem which yields state-of-the-art results in simulated and experimental datasets.
