This book describes the application of well-established concepts and techniques from areaslike data mining, machine learning, database technologies, and visualization techniques toproblems like protein data analysis, genome analysis and sequence databases. Chen has collectedcontributions from leading researchers in each area. The chapters can be read independently,as each offers a complete overview of its specifi c area, or combined, this monograph is acomprehensive treatment that will appeal to students, researchers, and R&D professionals inindustry who need a state-of-the-art introduction into this challenging and exciting young fi eld.
