Projects Overview

All projects are accompanied by their respective codes, necessary datasets (if required), and comprehensive documentation, which includes instructions and reports (in Persian).

1. Basic Biology (Theoretical)

Definitions and theoretical explanations of basic biological concepts in bioinformatics.

2. Pairwise Sequence Alignment (Programming/Theoretical)

Developed semi-global protein alignment utilizing dynamic programming techniques.

3. Multiple Sequence Alignment - DB Search (Programming/Theoretical)

Implemented a model for aligning multiple protein sequences using the Star Alignment algorithm

4. Profile - Hidden Markov Model (Programming/Theoretical))

Developed a model that extracts profiles from multiple sequence alignments and finds the optimal subsequence with the highest score based on the profile on a given long sequence.

5. Phylogenetic Trees (Theoretical)

Concepts and theoretical explanations in the field of phylogenetic trees.

6. Virus Classification - Final Project (Programming)

Analysis and classification of DNA Sequence Using Neural Networks. This project is the implementation of this research article. Developed a virus classification model using nucleotide sequences, employing the k-mer algorithm for preprocessing and integrating MLP Neural Networks in the machine learning model.
