    Topics in Signal Processing: applications in genomics and genetics Abdulkadir Elmas Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 c 2016 Abdulkadir Elmas All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Topics in Signal Processing: applications in genomics and genetics Abdulkadir Elmas The information in genomic or genetic data is influenced by various complex processes and appropriate mathematical modeling is required for studying the underlying processes and the data. This dissertation focuses on the formulation of mathematical models for certain problems in genomics and genetics studies and the development of algorithms for proposing efficient solutions. A Bayesian approach for the transcription factor (TF) motif discovery is examined and the extensions are proposed to deal with many interdependent parameters of the TF-DNA binding. The problem is described by statistical terms and a sequential Monte Carlo sampling method is employed for the estimation of unknown param- eters. In particular, a class-based resampling approach is applied for the accurate estimation of a set of intrinsic properties of the DNA binding sites. Through statistical analysis of the gene expressions, a motif-based computational approach is developed for the inference of novel regulatory networks in a given bacterial genome. To deal with high false-discovery rates in the genome-wide TF binding predictions, the discriminative learning approaches are examined in the context of sequence classification, and a novel mathematical model is introduced to the family of kernel-based Support Vector Machines classifiers. Furthermore, the problem of haplotype phasing is examined based on the genetic data obtained from cost-effective genotyping technologies.

    10 Years of the International Conference on Research in Computational Molecular Biology (RECOMB) Sarah J. Aerni and Eleazar Eskin The RECOMB 10th Year Anniversary Committee The tenth year of the annual International Conference on Research in Computational Biology (RECOMB) provides an opportunity to reflect on its history. RECOMB has been held across the world, including 6 different countries spanning 3 continents (Table 1). Over its 10 year history, RECOMB has published 373 papers and 170 individuals have served on its various committees. While there are many new faces in RECOMB each year, a significant number of researchers have participated over many years forming the core of the RECOMB community. Over the past ten years, members of the RECOMB community were key players in many of the advances in Computational Biology during this period. These include the sequencing and assembly of the human genome, advances in sequence comparison, comparative genomics, genome rearrangements and the HapMap project among others. Table 1. The locations and dates of each year of RECOMB. The program and conference chair are listed for each conference in the final two columns.
