Editorial Reviews

Review
From the reviews:

"Today, the word a ~bioinformaticsa (TM) is most commonly used to denote computational molecular biology. a ] This book collects surveys of the most significant themes of the field, written by various researchers. a ] Extensive bibliographies accompany each chapter. a ] the wide range of subject matter covered makes the book a good starting point for students or researchers with the necessary computer science background who are embarking on bioinformatics projects or research in the area." (R. M. Malyankar, Computing Reviews, April, 2006)

Product Description

 

Solving modern biological problems requires advanced informatics and computational methods. Key techniques include database management, data modeling, pattern recognition, data mining, query processing and visualization of biological data. Until very recently, virtually all public databases were simply large flat files stored in simple format. Navigating among databases required expert knowledge and considerable patience. The huge quantities of biological data and escalating demands of modern biological research increasingly require the sophistication and power of information technology tools. More specifically, optimal use of these tools requires proximity information ? knowing which data points are in the surrounding area of others.

In this book we will present methodologies and data structures for gathering high-quality approximations of biological information, and will use these information technologies as the foundation to develop practical tools for clustering and visualization in biological data mining and database management.
