Bio/Recursion: Exploring CS and Bioinformatics in R by Shawn T. O'Neil (English)

Description: Bio/Recursion by Shawn T. O'Neil Bio/Recursion implements and explores topics in computer science via examples from bioinformatics (and other biologically-inspired systems). It does so in the R programming language, visualizing the processes involved and considering functional and recursive procedures, as well as more procedural dynamic programming alternatives. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Bio/Recursion introduces topics in programming, computer science, and bioinformatics via examples in the R programming language. While often associated with statistics, Bio/Recursion employs Rs algorithmic capabilities to implement and visualize several fascinating methods, ranging from DNA alignment to drawing fractal trees.Recursion (self-reference) provides a central theme, with topics spanning searching, sorting, data structures, proofs, fractals, and important bio-informatics algorithms. Along the way, over 100 color illustrations and 150 code blocks illuminate the text, and dozens of exercises challenge the readers imagination.Chapters: Programming in RRecursive StructuresSearching and SortingInduction and StacksHash Tables, Memoization, and Dynamic ProgrammingAlignmentFast Alignment and Local AlignmentHidden Markov ModelsRecursive Drawing and L-Systems Author Biography Shawn T. ONeil earned a BS in computer science from Northern Michigan University, and later an MS and PhD in the same subject from the University of Notre Dame. His past and current research focuses on bioinformatics. ONeil has developed and taught several courses at both Notre Dame and Oregon State University, where he currently works at the Center for Genome Research and Biocomputing.
