Description

I will start by giving a general introduction into Bioinformatics, including basic biology, typical data types (sequences, structures, expression data and networks) and established analysis tasks. In the second part, I will discuss the problem of predictive sequence analysis with Support Vector Machines (SVMs). I will introduce a series of kernels suitable for different analysis tasks. Furthermore I will discuss the basic data structures needed for large scale learning and how to combine kernels for heterogeneous data. In the third part, I will focus on Hidden Markov models and discriminative alternatives like Conditional Random Fields and Hidden Markov SVMs suitable for segmentation tasks frequently appearing in Bioinformatics. In the last part I will present three applications in greater detail: A large margin alignment algorithm, computational gene finding and the identification of polymorphisms from resequencing arrays.

I really need to watch these video lectures but my internet connection in Tanzania has a very low speed. I can't even watch 1 minute online.
I need your help. Need to download these video lectures so as I can be able to watch them and revise.
Will help me a lot to integrate my basic science with bioiformatics

Comment5 Bipin Singh University of Allahabad, September 10, 2008 at 8:05 p.m.:

the video lectures are extremely good but there is some audio error at some point which could br resolved.Please provide the videos in .zip for easy and fast download.


Comment6 Saad The Islamia Univ Pakistan, December 4, 2008 at 11:38 p.m.:

Excellent Tutorial ... Thanks for upload


Comment7 m.rezaei, February 6, 2009 at 10:25 p.m.:

Due to low connection speed, it was impossible for me to
watch this video. Is it possible to download these videos?
I would appreciate if this is the case.
