The goal of this research is to investigate, collect and identify published methods that use fuzzy techniques in bioinformatics tasks. Special attention is paid to studying how the advantages of fuzzy techniques are used in various stages like preprocessing, optimization and building a classifier of classification task as difficult as processing microarray data. This article also inspects the most popular databases used in bioinformatics. The most perspective methods are given more detailed descriptions. Conclusions are made about working abilities of the algorithms and their use in further research.
