Ways Of Reading

This e-publication is accessible to the full extent that the file format and types of content allow, on a specific reading device, by default, without necessarily including any additions such as textual descriptions of images or enhanced navigation.
All contents of the digital publication necessary to use and understanding, including any text, images (via alternative descriptions), video (via audio description) is fully accessible via suitable audio reproduction.

Navigation

The contents of the PDF have been tagged to permit access by assistive technologies as per PDF-UA-1 standard.
Page breaks included from the original print source

Additional Accessibility Information

All (or substantially all) textual matter is arranged in a single logical reading order (including text that is visually presented as separate from the main text flow, e.g., in boxouts, captions, tables, footnotes, endnotes, citations, etc.). Non-textual content is also linked from within this logical reading order. (Purely decorative non-text content can be ignored).
The language of the text has been specified (e.g., via the HTML or XML lang attribute) to optimise text-to-speech (and other alternative renderings), both at the whole document level and, where appropriate, for individual words, phrases or passages in a different language.
For readers with color vision deficiency, use of color (e.g., in diagrams, graphics and charts, in prompts, or on buttons inviting a response) is not the sole means of graphical distinction or of conveying information
Content is enhanced with ARIA roles to optimize organization and facilitate navigation
Where interactive content is included in the product, controls are provided (e.g., for speed, pause and resume, reset) and labelled to make their use clear.

Note

This product relies on 3rd party tooling which may impact the accessibility features visible in inspection copies. All accessibility features mentioned would be present in the purchased version of the title.

Introduction to Bioinformatics and Machine Learning provides comprehensive instruction in modern computational biology by integrating bioinformatics, genomics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning into a unified learning framework. The book bridges the gap between biological data analysis and computational methods, covering fundamental concepts in molecular biology and bioinformatics together with practical applications of machine learning to genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, microbiome research, structural biology, NGS technologies, liquid biopsy, cancer genomics, and precision medicine. Readers are introduced to DNA and RNA sequencing technologies, genome assembly, sequence alignment, variant discovery, gene expression analysis, fusion gene detection, protein structure prediction, biological databases, statistical analysis, explainable artificial intelligence, and predictive modeling. Throughout the book, real-world biomedical case studies demonstrate how computational methods are transforming modern biological and clinical research; and both bioinformatics and machine learning are addressed in a coherent and accessible manner, emphasizing practical problem-solving, reproducible computational workflows, and biological interpretation of results.

Designed for upper-level undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers, this book serves as both a classroom textbook and practical assignments for those working at the interface of biology, computer science, medicine, and data science.
