This second edition provides new and updated chapters covering computational and mathematical techniques and concepts related to the field of comparative genomics.

This second edition provides new and updated chapters covering computational and mathematical techniques and concepts related to the field of comparative genomics. The topics covered in the chapters range from those that address general techniques and concepts that apply to all organisms to others that are specialized and apply to specific biological systems such as viruses, bacteria, nematodes, and insects. Well-known comparative genomics web-based platforms are also covered in specific chapters. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, many chapters include introductions to their respective topics and step-by-step comparison procedures, demonstrated on actual sets of genome sequences.Authoritative and cutting-edge, Comparative Genomics: Methods and Protocols, Second Edition aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.

This volume provides broad coverage of computational and mathematical techniques and concepts related to the field of comparative genomics. The topics covered in the chapters range from those concerned with general techniques and concepts that apply to all organisms to others that are more specialized, covering specific biological systems such as viruses, Drosophila, and Homo sapiens. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, by authors who are active researchers in the field, many chapters include step-by-step procedures, which illustrate practical applications of the techniques described.Cutting-edge and thorough, Comparative Genomics: Methods and Protocols should be useful to students and researchers in the continually growing and exciting field of comparative genomics.

Cai’s passion for science inspired his collaborators across the fields of classical and quantum information theory, combinatorics, computation, post-Shannon theory, and coding theory, and the contributions in this volume reflect his success as a researcher and mentor.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching, CPM 2012, held in Helsinki, Finland, in July 2012. The 33 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 60 submissions. The papers address issues of searching and matching strings and more complicated patterns such as trees, regular expressions, graphs, point sets, and arrays. The goal is to derive non-trivial combinatorial properties of such structures and to exploit these properties in order to either achieve superior performance for the corresponding computational problems or pinpoint conditions under which searches cannot be performed efficiently. The meeting also deals with problems in computational biology, data compression and data mining, coding, information retrieval, natural language processing, and pattern recognition.
