This process involves comparing a query sequence to a reference sequence to identify regions of similarity, helping to infer functional and evolutionary relationships.

Sequence Alignment

300

The use of internet technology by the public, health workers, and others to access healthcare and lifestyle services, information, and support

E-health/telemedicine/telehealth  

300

This technique, commonly used in data science, involves splitting a dataset into a training set and a testing set to evaluate the performance of a machine learning model

Cross-validation
