Mathematics of Bioinformatics: Theory, Methods, and
Applications provides a comprehensive format for
connecting and integrating information derived from mathematical
methods and applying it to the understanding of biological
sequences, structures, and networks. Each chapter is divided into a
number of sections based on the bioinformatics topics and related
mathematical theory and methods. Each topic of the section is
comprised of the following three parts: an introduction to the
biological problems in bioinformatics; a presentation
of relevant topics of mathematical theory and methods to the
bioinformatics problems introduced in the first part; an
integrative overview that draws the connections and interfaces
between bioinformatics problems/issues and mathematical
theory/methods/applications.
