C4P for the new special issue of EURASIP Journal on Bioinformatics and Systems Biology
Dalia Hassanin
Call for Papers
Information theoretic methods for modeling are at the center of the current
efforts to interpret bioinformatics data. The high pace at which new
technologies are developed for collecting genomic and proteomic data
requires a sustained effort to provide powerful methods for modeling the
data acquired. Recent advances in universal modeling and minimum
description length techniques have been shown to be well suited for
modeling and analyzing such data. This special issue calls for
contributions to modeling of data arising in bioinformatics and systems
biology by information theoretic means. Submissions should address
theoretical developments, computational aspects, or specific applications.
Suitable topics for this special issue include but are not limited to:
Normalized maximum-likelihood (NML) universal models
Minimum description length (MDL) techniques
Microarray data modeling
Denoising of genomic data
Pattern recognition
Data compression-based modeling
