The 5th Transactions on Computational Systems Biology collects carefully chosen and enhanced contributions initially presented at the 2005 IEEE International Conference on Granular Computing held in Beijing, China, in July 2005. The 9 papers in this special issue cover various aspects of computational methods, algorithms and techniques in bioinformatics such as gene expression analysis, biomedical literature mining and natural language processing, protein structure prediction, biological database management and biomedical information retrieval.

Here are the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics, WABI 2006, held in the course of the ALGO 2006 conference meetings. The book presents 36 revised full papers addressing all current issues of algorithms in bioinformatics, from mathematical tools to experimental studies of approximation algorithms and reports on significant computational analyses. For the first time, coverage extends to machine-learning approaches along with combinatorial optimization.

This book contains selected and revised papers of the International Symposium on Knowledge Discovery and Emergent Complexity in Bioinformatics (KDECB 2006), held at the University of Ghent, Belgium, May 10, 2006. In February 1943, the Austrian physicist Erwin Schrodi ] nger, one of the founding fathers of quantum mechanics, gave a series of lectures at Trinity College in Dublin titled "What Is Life? The Physical Aspect of the Living Cell and Mind. " In these l- tures Schrodi ] nger stressed the fundamental differencesencountered between observing animate and inanimate matter, and advanced...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics, WABI 2011, held in Saarbrucken, Germany, in September 2011. The 30 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 77 submissions. They cover aspects of algorithms in bioinformatics, computational biology and systems biology.

Address issues in Advanced Intelligent Computing, especially Methodologies and Applications, including theories, methodologies, and applications in science and technology. This three-volume set constitutes refereed post-conference proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2011, held in China, in August 2011.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Pattern Recognition in Bioinformatics, PRIB 2011, held in Delft, The Netherlands, in November 2011. The 29 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 35 submissions. The papers cover the wide range of possible applications of bioinformatics in pattern recognition: novel algorithms to handle traditional pattern recognition problems such as (bi)clustering, classification and feature selection; applications of (novel) pattern recognition techniques to infer and analyze biological...
