Algorithms for Bioinformatics

Technological advances in DNA sequencing, RNA sequencing and proteomics have provided a wealth of data from which biological insight can be obtained. Refining this data is a non-trivial matter due to the increased input sizes seen in modern high-throughput bioinformatics. This subject provides algorithmic strategies and data structures capable of meeting the challenge. While focused on bioinformatic data, the concepts herein apply to big data analysis as a whole.
