Abstract
De novo genome assembly is the bioinformatics' problem to reconstruct the original molecule from its sub-sequences, with no previous knowledge on DNA. Inspired by the maximum likelihood approach, recently a new experimental approach was developed. In this thesis, for the first time this new stochastic approach has been implemented into a software assembler. A parallel software has been developed in order to obtain a first experimental validation of the model, testing also some artificial dataFile in questo prodotto:
