I am currently trying to develop a NN model to determine 
a quantitative relationship between nucleotide sequences and 
functional activities.  

The data takes the following form:

sequence		activity

ATTTCT			2.3
ACCTCC			3.0
AAATCG 			2.5

etc....

I would like to develop a general model which can predict activity
given a new sequence.  

This is my first AI project.  I would like to hear about 
similar work that has already been done, as well as possible 
approaches to this problem.

Thanks!
