For the past decade or so, Computational Intelligence (CI) has been
an - tremely "hot" topic amongst researchers working in the ?elds
of biomedicine and bioinformatics. There are many successful
applications of CI in such areas ascomputationalgenomics,
predictionofgeneexpression, proteinstructure, and protein-protein
interactions, modeling of evolution, or neuronal systems mod- ing
and analysis. However, there still are many problems in biomedicine
and bioinformatics that are in desperate need of advanced and
e?cient compu- tional methodologies to deal with tremendous amounts
of data so prevalent in those kinds of researchpursuits.
Unfortunately, scientists in both these ?elds are very often
unaware of the abundance of computational techniques that could be
put to use to help them analyze and understand the data underlying
their research inquiries. On the other hand, computational
intelligence practitioners are often unfamiliar with the particular
problems that their algorithms could be successfully applied for.
The separation between the two worlds is partially caused by the
use of di?erent languages in these two spheres of science, but also
by a relatively small number of publications devoted solely to the
purpose of facilitating the exchange of new computational
algorithms and methodologies on one hand, and the needs of the
realms of biomedicine and bioinformatics on the other.
