Description

A mini-treatise on the mathematics, philosophy and practice of Transformatics for Geneticists. Applying TRANSFORMATICS in GENETICS brings to surface the importance of leveraging the mathematical theory recently named "Transformatics", that deals with the study, processing and analysis of especially ordered sequences of symbols and their alteration via symbolic machines known as sequence transformers. In earlier and recent work by the author, it has been demonstrated to be a credible and powerful theory in designing, specifying and explaining the properties of automata operating on sequences to produce other sequences. In this particular work, we take that body of knowledge, as well as what we know about the important science of how biological life-forms are defined, transformed and expressed in nature based on genetic code sequences known as DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), and use that to revisit old and new problems in the field of GENETICS, developing many new, and previously unpresented solutions based on the theories, calculus and mechanics of sequence transformers (aka, "transformatics").
