Malini's Musings

Hello Probably you found this blog post from a google search on Hidden Markov Models As an experimental biologist, I transitioned into bioinformatics and computational biology and was introduced to the world of algorithms and programming over the past 8 months. I finally understood Hidden Markov Models and wish to share my understanding with other confused people through this Unacademy video.  I have kept in mind two kinds of people while making this video 1. Biologists with no programming or modelling experience transitioning into bioinformatics 2. Computer science students with no biology background curious about the biology part of bioinformatics. In the video (made for GATE exam aspirants) I used CpG islands as example to explain Hidden Markov Models (HMM) concept and application. If you don't know what CpG islands are, no worries, I explained that in the video too. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed making it. Good Day! 

Hi there ! I have not been able to blog because I have been busy. I started making videos on Unacademy. When I was introduced to Bioinformatics in my 5th semester of B.E. Biotechnology, I found it tough. In my videos, I have tried to make it simple, without oversimplifying it.
