Wiley Series on Bioinformatics: Computational Techniques and Engineering. Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley & Sons (ISBN 978-0-470-40443-0/hbk; 978-0-470-90464-0/ebook). xvi, 298 p. (2011).
Publisher’s description: This book provides a comprehensive format for connecting and integrating information derived from mathematical methods and applying it to the understanding of biological sequences, structures, and networks.
Each chapter is divided into a number of sections based on the bioinformatics topics and related mathematical theory and methods. Each topic of the section is comprised of the following three parts: an introduction to the biological problems in bioinformatics; a presentation of relevant topics of mathematical theory and methods to the bioinformatics problems introduced in the first part; an integrative overview that draws the connections and interfaces between bioinformatics problems/issues and mathematical theory/methods/applications.
