Its importance has increased with the technology of DNA sequencing, microarrays, as well as the widespread understanding that genes and proteins act in networks. This in turn renders high performance data analysis algorithms central to various bioinformatics tasks. The research topics ...

Special Issue on Environmental Data Mining

Data Mining is the discipline for non trivial identifying of valid, novel, potentially useful, ultimately understandable patterns in data [3] and provides the opportunity to extract relevant decisional knowledge from data bases in any application field. In particular it can contribute to a better understanding of Environmental Sciences. Environmental Sciences is a wide research field with a num...
