| Additional Course Info | Class Number: 2687 This course introduces foundational algorithms that have become essential for learning from biological data. With the genome sequencing revolution, it has become easier and cheaper to obtain genetic data, but often challenging to store, analyze, and make sense of this data. These questions have driven new algorithm development and repurposed existing algorithms for biology. We will study these algorithms from a variety of angles, including theory, implementation, application, biological interpretation, and communication of results.; Pre-requisite(s): CS260 "Foundations of Data Science"; Lottery Preference: 1. senior CMSC majors; 2. junior CMSC majors; 3. senior CMSC minors; 4. junior CMSC minors; 5.
