AI SEMINAR UNISYS PAOLI RESEARCH CENTER Computer Identification of Eukaryotic Genes in Uncharacterized Sequences: Applications to the Genome Project. Dr. Periannan Senapathy Biotechnology Center University of Wisconsin An international effort is now underway to determine the complete nucleotide sequence of the human genome (about 3.5X10^9 nucleotides) as well as those of other biomedically important organisms. In accomplishing this goal, large regions of raw sequence data will be generated, and major tasks will include analysis to identify and characterize genes within the sequence data. Statistical analysis and computer algorithms will be the primary tools to address these problems. In this talk, I will first present the motivation for the human genome project and then discuss my current work on the statistical basis for identifying eukaryotic genes. 3:30pm Monday, May 22 Cafeteria Conference Room Unisys Paoli Research Center Route 252 and Central Ave. Paoli PA 19311 -- non-Unisys visitors who are interested in attending should -- -- send email to finin@prc.unisys.com or call 215-648-7446 --
