Computational Methods for the Analysis of Genomic Data and Biological Processes

In recent decades new technologies have made remarkable progress in helping to understand biological systems. Rapid advances in genomic profiling techniques such as microarrays or high-performance sequencing have brought new opportunities and challenges in the fields of computational biology and bioinformatics. Such genetic sequencing techniques allow large amounts of data to be produced whose analysis and cross-integration could provide a complete view of organisms. As a result it is necessary to develop new techniques and algorithms that carry out an analysis of these data with reliability and efficiency. This Special Issue collected the latest advances in the field of computational methods for the analysis of gene expression data and in particular the modeling of biological processes. Here we present eleven works selected to be published in this Special Issue due to their interest quality and originality.
