Expected Background:
Students should be familiar with algorithms
(at least CSC 373 level), basic probability theory.
Grading:
The basic requirements for the class will be a course project (45% of the
grade for CSC 2417 students, 30% for BCB 410), three homework assignments
(45% for CSC 2417 and 60% for BCB 410), and class participation (10%).
Students in BCB 410 have the option of using the 2417 grading scheme (i.e. reweighing the project to be a larger fraction of the grade), but not vice-versa. The project can be on any topic (loosely) related to computational biology.
Administrative details:
For CS MSc students this class is in breadth category 4 (Human Centric and Interdisciplinary computing).
