Methods for detecting protein-protein interactions (PPIs) have given researchers a global picture of protein interactions on a genomic scale. ""Biological Data Mining in Protein Interaction Networks"" explains bioinformatic methods for predicting PPIs, as well as data mining methods to mine or analyze various protein interaction networks. A defining body of research within the field, this book discovers underlying interaction mechanisms by studying intra-molecular features that form the common denominator of various PPIs.

Biological and clinical studies provide valuable insight into the causes and potential cures of disease. Using statistics and data mining and other computational approaches, bioinformatics researchers can provide the medical community with ground-breaking discoveries that change how we perceive and treat these illnesses. Computational Knowledge Discovery for Bioinformatics Research discusses the most significant research and latest practices in computational knowledge discovery approaches to bioinformatics in a cross-disciplinary manner which is useful for researchers, practitioners, academicians, mathematicians, statisticians, and computer scientists involved in the many facets of bioinformatics. This book aims to increase the awareness of interesting and challenging biomedical problems and to inspire new knowledge discovery solutions.

This book reviews cutting-edge developments in neural signalling processing (NSP), systematically introducing readers to various models and methods in the context of NSP. Neuronal Signal Processing is a comparatively new field in computer sciences and neuroscience, and is rapidly establishing itself as an important tool, one that offers an ideal opportunity to forge stronger links between experimentalists and computer scientists. This new signal-processing tool can be used in conjunction with existing computational tools to analyse neural activity, which is monitored through different sensors such as spike trains, local filed potentials and EEG. The analysis of neural activity can yield vital insights into the function of the brain. This book highlights the contribution of signal processing in the area of computational neuroscience by providing a forum for researchers in this field to share their experiences to date.

Deep Learning has achieved great success in many challenging research areas, such as image recognition and natural language processing. The key merit of deep learning is to automatically learn good feature representation from massive data conceptually. In this book, we will show that the deep learning technology can be a very good candidate for improving sensing capabilities.In this edited volume, we aim to narrow the gap between humans and machines by showcasing various deep learning applications in the area of sensing. The book will cover the fundamentals of deep learning techniques and their applications in real-world problems including activity sensing, remote sensing and medical sensing. It will demonstrate how different deep learning techniques help to improve the sensing capabilities and enable scientists and practitioners to make insightful observations and generate invaluable discoveries from different types of data.

Biologists are stepping up their efforts in understanding the biological processes that underlie disease pathways in the clinical contexts. This has resulted in a flood of biological and clinical data from genomic and protein sequences, DNA microarrays, protein interactions, biomedical images, to disease pathways and electronic health records. To exploit these data for discovering new knowledge that can be translated into clinical applications, there are fundamental data analysis difficulties that have to be overcome. Practical issues such as handling noisy and incomplete data, processing compute-intensive tasks, and integrating various data sources, are new challenges faced by biologists in the post-genome era. This book will cover the fundamentals of state-of-the-art data mining techniques which have been designed to handle such challenging data analysis problems, and demonstrate with real applications how biologists and clinical scientists can employ data mining to enable them to make meaningful observations and discoveries from a wide array of heterogeneous data from molecular biology to pharmaceutical and clinical domains.

This book constitutes refereed proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Deep Learning for Human Activity Recognition, DL-HAR 2020, held in conjunction with IJCAI-PRICAI 2020, in Kyoto, Japan, in January 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the workshop was postponed to the year 2021 and held in a virtual format. The 10 presented papers were thorougly reviewed and included in the volume. They present recent research on applications of human activity recognition for various areas such as healthcare services, smart home applications, and more.
