Exercise 2B
Full credit will only be given to correct answers with a clear
explanation
of how they are obtained. Use additional paper as necessary.
- If only the S/W property of nucleotide bases is considered, one can
generate a binary Markov chain with transition probability matrix
Find the stationary distribution (f(s), f(w)) of this Markov
chain. Enter your answers in the table below.
- Write down the system of linear equations you'll need to solve in
order to find the stationary distribution of the Markov nucleotide sequence
with the transition probability matrix in problem 1 of Exercise 2A. You
do not have to solve the system unless you have plenty of time or a
calculator that does matrix calculations.
