Combinatorial Pattern Matching Algorithms in Computational Biology Using Perl and R (Chapman & Hall/CRC Mathematical and Computational Biology) by Gabriel Valiente

by Gabriel Valiente

This book provides a comprehensive view of the field, addressing specific pattern matching problems for sequences, tressa, and graphs. It examines specific algorithmic problems that arise when dealing with structures in computational biology, including biology sequences, phylogenetic trees, networks, and metabolic and signaling pathways. For each of these problems, the author offers a clear distinction between problems in the analysis of one structure and in the comparative analysis of two or more structures. He also provides full Perl and R implementation as well as pointers to other software, such as CPAN, Bioperl, CRAN, and Bioconductor. The Perl and R source code are included on the author
