Abstract
The mathematical theory of Markov Chain was known to us for 100 years or more. In 80s engineers started using this theory to analyze speech and define speech model. In recent years, bioinformatics applications, in the area of alignment, labeling, and profiling of genetic sequences, protein structure prediction, and pattern recognition, use Hidden Markov Models. We will introduce the method and its application in biological data analysis.
