Abstract
Genomic sequence databases are widely used by molecular
biologists for homology. Similarity searching for DNA/protein sequences
is a very important and significant step for research in biology or
bioinformatics. In computer science, similarity searching for sequences
have been studied for long time and many methods have been proposed.
However, due to the huge size of genomic sequence database, most of the
methods are not appropriate in the domain of bioinformatics. In this talk,
I will introduce some algorithms (FASTA, BLAST and CAFE) for doing
similarity searching for genomic sequence databases.
