Comment l’intelligence artificielle Révolutionne le Séquençage Génomique

L’intersection entre l’intelligence artificielle et la génomique
Aecio D’Silva, Ph.D.(1), Marcelo Cordeiro, Ph.D.(2)
Intelligence artificielle et séquençage génomique –  Le séquençage génomique est devenu un outil essentiel pour comprendre et traiter diverses maladies. Il s’agit d’analyser l’ADN d’une personne pour déterminer sa constitution génétique, ce qui peut fournir des informations précieuses sur les risques possibles pour la santé et les options de traitement personnalisées. Cependant, le processus de séquençage du génome est extrêmement complexe et prend beaucoup de temps, nécessitant une grande expertise et des ressources. C’est là qu’intervient l’intelligence artificielle (IA). En tirant parti des algorithmes d’apprentissage automatique et en analysant de grands ensembles de données, l’IA révolutionne le domaine du séquençage génomique et ouvre de nouvelles possibilités de recherche et de découverte.
