Funded Activity Summary

Kernel methods for the analysis of whole bacterial genomes. This project addresses the fundamental scientific problem of the identification of regulatory regions and specific promoters within bacterial genomes, with a focus upon two organisms of great social, economic and bioterrism significance. From the machine learning perspective, the project will be the first to produce a kernel-based approach directly tailored to the problem of the detection of regulatory regions. The methods developed will be made available through a straightforward web-based interface, allowing biologists throughout the world to utilize the approach as a tool to be applied to a progressively widening class of bacterial genomes, and even to eukaryotes.
