Key takeaways

Victor V. Solovyev belongs to biology; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Victor V. Solovyev to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Victor V. Solovyev from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Victor V. Solovyev (Russian: Виктор Владимирович Соловьёв) is the chief scientific officer of Softberry Inc. He was previously a professor of computer science in the Computer, Electrical and Mathematical Sciences and Engineering Division at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) (2013-2015) and in the Department of Computer Science at Royal Holloway College, University of London (2003-2012). He was on the editorial board of Mathematical Biosciences and was a founder of Softberry Inc..

Research Solovyev works with developing statistical approaches, machine learning algorithms, computational platforms and bioinformatics tools for high-throughput biological big data analysis. He is interested in genome structural and functional annotation and applying it for rational design of biological systems.

Education Solovyev received Ph.D. in genetics from Russian Academy of Sciences in 1985 and M.S. in physics from Novosibirsk State University in 1978.

Career Solovyev joined KAUST in 2013 as Professor in the Computer, Electrical and Mathematical Sciences and Engineering Division. He had previously been a professor of Computer Science in the Department of Computer Science, Royal Holloway College, London University (2003-2012). He was the genome annotation group leader in the Joint Genomic Institute, Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (2003) and was the director of bioinformatics at EOS Biotechnology (1999-2002). He was a leader of the computational genomics group at the Sanger Centre in Cambridge, UK (1997-1999). He also held positions as assistant professor at Baylor College of Medicine, computational scientist at Amgen Inc., visiting scientist at Supercomputer Center, Florida State University, visiting professor at ITBA (Milan, Italy) and a group leader at the Institute of Cytology and Genetics in Novosibirsk, Russia.

Software developing About 100 software applications implemented as standalone programs or combined in pipeline or packages, have been developed under his guidance. Many of these programs are available for the academic community to run on-line or for downloading. Scientific community actively uses these applications. For example, the Fgenesh eukaryotic gene identification program has been used or cited in more than 3,000 scientific publications, according to Google scholar data. The Fgenesb bacterial genome annotation pipeline based on Markov chain models was significantly superior to other approaches, in gene finding in bacterial community sequences. MolQuest is the most comprehensive, easy-to-use desktop application for sequence analysis and molecular biology data management.

Other interests Besides bioinformatics, his interests include cryptography and information security. FendoffF an application to encrypt passwords, files or images that uses several original encryption methods, was developed for iOS and Android as well as for desktop computers. He also developed the Wild West Chess computer game.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Victor V. Solovyev

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Victor V. Solovyev claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In biology, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Victor V. Solovyev before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Victor V. Solovyev ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Victor V. Solovyev

In research: Victor V. Solovyev appears in biology research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Victor V. Solovyev in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Victor V. Solovyev is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Academic staff of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Baylor College of Medicine faculty, Living people, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Victor V. Solovyev outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
