Abstract:

Hepatitis B Virus(HBV)infection is a global health problem and each HBV genotype has its unique feature. 10 patients
HBV sequences are used to study the evolutionary relationship and the process of mutation base of HBV on the sequence level.
Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis(MEGA)software is firstly applied to make multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic
analysis for HBV sequences. Then, Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis(WEKA)software is applied to conduct feature
selection for HBV sequence. The results show that the phylogenetic trees can accurately predict genotypes of 7 patients HBV
sequences. Furthermore, feature selection can improve the accuracy of classifiers.

Key words: HBV, multiple sequence alignment, phylogenetic analysis, feature selection
