* [[Basic Local Alignment Search Tool]] also known as BLAST: an algorithm for comparing primary biological sequence information
* [[Kabsch algorithm]]: calculate the optimal alignment of two sets of points in order to compute the [[RMSD|root mean squared deviation]] between two protein structures.
* [[Velvet (algorithm)|Velvet]]: a set of algorithms manipulating [[de Bruijn graph]]s for genomic [[sequence assembly]]
* [[Sorting by signed reversals]]: an algorithm for understanding genomic evolution.
* [[Maximum parsimony (phylogenetics)]]: an algorithm for finding the simplest phylogenetic tree to explain a given character matrix.
* [[UPGMA]]: a distance-based phylogenetic tree construction algorithm.
* [[Bloom filter|Bloom Filter]]: probabilistic data structure used to test for the existence of an element within a set. Primarily used in bioinformatics to test for the existence of a [[k-mer]] in a sequence or sequences.
