Statistical Methods in Bioinformatics: An Introduction (Statistics for Biology and Health)
Authors: Warren J. Ewens, Gregory Grant Manufacturer: Springer Keywords: Biology ISBN: 0387400826
Book description Advances in computers and biotechnology have had a profound impact on biomedical research, and as a result complex data sets can now be generated to address extremely complex biological questions. Correspondingly, advances in the statistical methods necessary to analyze such data are following closely behind the advances in data generation methods. The statistical methods required by bioinformatics present many new and difficult problems for the research community.This book provides an introduction to some of these new methods. The main biological topics treated include sequence analysis, BLAST, microarray analysis, gene finding, and the analysis of evolutionary processes. The main…
Book review: Most Elegant Account of Bioinformatics I was impressed with the 1st edition of this book for its most comprehensive and elegant of statistical techniques in bioinformatics. The book is slightly below the level of the now classic M S… |
