DNA Sequence Classification based on Milvus
Sep 6, 2021Jael Gu

Summary
This post details the application of Milvus for DNA sequence classification. It explains the k-mer preprocessing technique to convert DNA sequences into manageable text-like data, followed by vectorization using NLP models like CountVectorizer. The post demonstrates how Milvus's similarity search capabilities, based on ANN, can be used to classify gene families and determine genetic similarity between organisms. It includes code snippets for inserting vectors and performing searches, and presents performance comparisons showing Milvus outperforming MySQL and other ML classifiers in accuracy for DNA sequence classification.
