Enhancements to Hidden Markov Models for Gene Finding and Other Biological Applications

In this thesis, we present enhancements of hidden Markov models for the problem of finding genes in DNA sequences. Genes are the parts of DNA that serve as a template for synthesis of proteins. Thus, gene finding is a crucial step in the analysis of DNA sequencing data. <br /><br...
