Description:
COURSE AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:
The goal of the course is to introduce the most important techniques of the combinatorial and probabilistic of biological sequences - modelling of biological families, philogenetic constructions, gene searching. The emphasis is on applications - algorithmic, computational and numeric.

COURSE DESCRIPTION AND SYLLABUS:
1. Introduction. Biological processes, biomolecules - DNA, RNA, proteins, protein networks and aligning of sequence pairs, supstitution matrics, algorithms for aligning of sequence pairs
2. Markov chains, hidden markov models, Viterbi alghoritm and variants, family profile, gene searching.
3. Baurn - Welch optimization, introduction to philogenetic trees, neighbor - joining alghoritm.
