"There is a lack of an exposition on interdisciplinary and innovative methods of data mining and visualization for biodata. This book fills the gap by introducing an interdisciplinary set of the most recent methods and references on novel techniques from artificial intelligence, data mining, engineering, pattern recognition, and ontological data mining fields that are applicable to bioinformatics. The latest novel approaches are explained in detail, their advantages and disadvantages are summarized, and pointers to the future development of new applications are given. By widening the pool from which biologists and bioinformaticians can adopt methods for biodata mining and visualization, computational data mining experts in nonbiological fields are also encouraged to utilize their expertise in order to contribute to the progress of computational biology, thus enhancing the collaboration between these two disciplines."--Publisher's website
This book covers a wide range of subjects in applying machine learning approaches for bioinformatics projects. The book succeeds on two key unique features. First, it introduces the most widely used machine learning approaches in bioinformatics and discusses, with evaluations from real case studies, how they are used in individual bioinformatics projects. Second, it introduces state-of-the-art bioinformatics research methods. Furthermore, the book includes R codes and example data sets to help readers develop their own bioinformatics research skills. The theoretical parts and the practical parts are well integrated for readers to follow the existing procedures in individual research. Unlike ...
This book examines four contemporary sites of visual culture in East Asia through the poetic prism of the “ruinous garden.” Framing destroyed, discarded, and displaced material objects within a rhetoric of development and relating this to the experience of ethnic/national culture, the book presents succinct analyses of visual works, as well as cultural criticisms, centered on space in metropolitan Japan and Hong Kong, China. These analyses are placed in dialog with approaches from postcolonial texts, addressing development and fractures in representation. Additionally, the book suggests graphic design as a form of retrospective cultural thinking, encompassing visual and invisible modernity, as well as an attachment to disappearing space. Offering a unique and thorough analysis of Japanese visual culture, combining discussion on photography, installation art, and graphic design, as well as integrating material from Hong Kong visual culture in discussions of identity, this book will appeal to students and scholars of visual culture in East Asia, environmental art, and environmental humanities.
This volume of Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing contains accepted papers presented in the main track of ECC 2015, the Second Euro-China Conference on Intelligent Data Analysis and Applications. The aim of ECC is to provide an internationally respected forum for scientific research in the broad area of intelligent data analysis, computational intelligence, signal processing, and all associated applications of AIs. The second edition of ECC was organized jointly by VSB - Technical University of Ostrava, Czech Republic, and Fujian University of Technology, Fuzhou, China. The conference, organized under the patronage of Mr. Miroslav Novak, President of the Moravian-Silesian Region, took place in late June and early July 2015 in the Campus of the VSB - Technical University of Ostrava, Czech Republic.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Bioinformatics, PRIB 2007, held in Singapore in October 2007. The 38 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 125 submissions. The papers discuss the applications of pattern recognition methods in the field of bioinformatics to solve problems in life sciences.
Mapping the genomic landscapes is one of the most exciting frontiers of science. We have the opportunity to reverse engineer the blueprints and the control systems of living organisms. Computational tools are key enablers in the deciphering process. This book provides an in-depth presentation of some of the important computational biology approaches to genomic sequence analysis. The first section of the book discusses methods for discovering patterns in DNA and RNA. This is followed by the second section that reflects on methods in various ways, including performance, usage and paradigms.
This book presents innovative approaches from database researchers supporting the challenging process of knowledge discovery in biomedicine. Ranging from how to effectively store and organize biomedical data via data quality and case studies to sophisticated data mining methods, this book provides the state-of-the-art of database technology for life sciences and medicine. A valuable source of information for experts in life sciences who want to be updated about the possibilities of database technology in their field, this volume will also be inspiring for students and researchers in informatics who are keen to contribute to this emerging field of interdisciplinary research.
Medical Informatics (MI) is an emerging interdisciplinary science. This book deals with the application of computational intelligence in MI. Addressing the various issues of medical informatics using different computational intelligence approaches is the novelty of this edited volume. This volume comprises of 15 chapters selected on the basis of fundamental ideas/concepts including an introductory chapter giving the fundamental definitions and some important research challenges.
The purpose of this book is to provide an overview of state-of-the-art methodologies currently utilized for biomedicine and/or bioinformatics-oriented applications. Researchers working in these fields will learn new methods to help tackle their problems.
