How do we infer which genes orchestrate various processes in the cell? How did humans migrate out of Africa and spread around the world? In this class, we will see that these two seemingly different questions can be addressed using similar algorithmic and machine learning techniques arising from the general problem of dividing data points into distinct clusters.

Programme de cours : ce que vous apprendrez dans ce cours
Week 1: Introduction to Clustering Algorithms
<p>Welcome to class!</p><p>At the beginning of the class, we will see how algorithms for <strong>clustering </strong>a set of data points will help us determine how yeast became such good wine-makers. At the bottom of this email is the Bioinformatics Cartoon for this chapter, courtesy of <a href="http://bearandfox.com" target="_blank" title="Link: http://bearandfox.com">Randall Christopher</a> and serving as a chapter header in the Specialization's bestselling <a href="http://bioinformaticsalgorithms.com" target="_blank">print companion</a>. How did the monkey lose a wine-drinking contest to a tiny mammal? Why have Pavel and Phillip become cavemen? And will flipping a coin help them escape their eternal boredom until they can return to the present? Start learning to find out!</p><p><img width="550" alt="" src="http://bioinformaticsalgorithms.com/images/cover/clustering_cropped.jpg" title="Image: http://bioinformaticsalgorithms.com/images/cover/clustering_cropped.jpg"></p>

Meilleurs avis pour GENOMIC DATA SCIENCE AND CLUSTERING (BIOINFORMATICS V)
The first two week was very good, but for week 3 I don't see the content has any connection with Genomic Data Science.
Absolutely fantastic course. Kudos to the course creators.
Truly awesome. What I liked best was that this course didn't have a peer reviewed final challenge, so I didn't have to wait months until my work was graded :)
Really enjoyed the clustering chapters and the practical exercises with the yeast dataset
