Statistical Learning for Genetics and Biology
This course provides an introduction to statistical and computational methods for modern genetics and biological research. It begins with fundamental concepts in statistical learning and statistical genetics, and then introduces their applications to genetic association, quantitative trait analysis, and high-dimensional biological data.A particular focus is placed on personalized quantitative genetics, where statistical models are used to characterize individual-specific genetic effects, genetic interactions, and dynamic biological processes. The course also covers the foundations of machine learning and deep learning, including commonly used algorithms, model evaluation, and interpretation.The final part of the course introduces recent developments in AI for biological science, with examples from genomics, transcriptomics, phenomics, systems biology, and related areas. Through lectures, methodological discussions, and selected research papers, students will learn how statistical modeling, machine learning, and artificial intelligence can be integrated to address complex problems in contemporary biological research.
