Thesis Project Blueprint Context
What do we know so far Why is this work important
LCS Hits curves
where does the number of hits explode Visualization
Where are these regions Further investigation of regions of interest
Promoter Prediction Tools
Existing tools: what’s out there? Developing a new tool
Visualization visualize all predicted promoters against LCS identified
regions
Context
Promoter sequences might be identified as conserved islands in a divergent sea”

Promoter Prediction
Existing Tools Interpolated Context Modeling (ICM) Feedforward Neural Network
New ideas for promoter prediction Neural Networks
Drosophila tool GPCR tool
Data mining techniques WEKA
Other forms of computer learning
Course Selection
BIOC 570 - completed MICR 502 - Virology Courses to sit in for:
Biochemistry courses? Computing courses?
Data mining Bioinformatics
Questions for myself
Hits curves – what does it mean if they identify same region? Exact to approximate matches
Why is this study important What weka tools would be good?
