Description about the Workshop

This workshop aims to provide in-depth knowledge with working examples to utilize machine learning techniques in biological research problems such as classification and real value prediction. A systematic approach for developing an efficient computational tool will be explained in detail with assessment procedures and extensive tutorials. The projects designed in this workshop will help to follow the protocol independently and achieve the goal. The participants of the workshop will be capable of developing reliable bioinformatics tools upon successful completion of the program.
