Introduction,ts informational aspect. Biology is full of structure and process and it follows that the applications of information theory to biology are pervasive. Hence, bioinformatics goes well beyond the study of DNA sequences—regularities within individual genes and genomes in order to elucidate function, an

The Transmission of Informationmation, transmitting it through a channel, the addition of noise and, finally, receiving and decoding the information. Biological coding is introduced through the examples of DNA, RNA and proteins. Further topics dealt with include the compression of information (and its use to measure distance), er

Probability and Likelihoods of distributions are reviewed. The theory of runs (successions of similar events preceded and succeeded by different events), which is useful for analysing nucleic acid sequences and series of events, is reviewed, and it leads naturally onto the hypergeometric distribution. The chapter then moves

Randomness and Complexity concerning purported regularities, it is of fundamental importance to master randomness—in so far as it can in principle be mastered. The chapter then moves on to random processes, and the powerful approach of the Markov chain. That leads naturally into consideration of random walks. Noise, already

Algorithmsd clustering are considered in some detail because of their practical importance in solving many problems in bioinformatics. Multidimensional scaling, a technique that could probably find many applications in bioinformatics, receives attention. The chapter closes with some remarks on visualization a

Introduction to Part II?.–.). This introductory chapter is mainly devoted to concepts. Relevant terms such as genotype, phenotype and species are defined. Concepts especially important in biology such as adaptation, regulation and modularity are introduced. Evolution is seen as phylogenetic adaptation, and adaptation itse
