The first comprehensive overview of preprocessing, mining,and postprocessing of biological data
Molecular biology is undergoing exponential growth in both thevolume and complexity of biological data--and knowledgediscovery offers the capacity to automate complex search and dataanalysis tasks. This book presents a vast overview of the mostrecent developments on techniques and approaches in the field ofbiological knowledge discovery and data mining (KDD)--providingin-depth fundamental and technical field information on the mostimportant topics encountered.
Written by top experts, Biological Knowledge DiscoveryHandbook: Preprocessing, Mining, and Postprocessing of BiologicalData covers the three main phases of knowledge discovery (datapreprocessing, data processing--also known as datamining--and data postprocessing) and analyzes both verificationsystems and discovery systems.
