UNLABELLED We have developed a web-based system (Pathway Miner) for visualizing gene expression profiles in the context of biological pathways. Pathway Miner catalogs genes based on their role in metabolic, cellular and regulatory pathways. A Fisher exact test is provided as an option to rank pathways. The genes are mapped onto pathways and gene product association networks are extracted for ge...

A new datamining procedure called KL–Miner is presented. The procedure mines for various patterns based on evaluation of two–dimensional contingency tables, including patterns of statistical nature. The procedure is a result of continued development of the academic LISp-Miner system for KDD.

Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is gaining popularity as data mining technique in the domain of Swarm Intelligence for its simple, accurate and comprehensive nature of classification. In this paper the authors propose a novel advanced version of the original ant colony based miner (Ant-Miner) in order to extract classification rules from data. They call this Advanced ACO-Miner (ADACOM). The main ...

Aim To determine the factors influencing the distribution of birds in remnants in a fragmented agricultural landscape. Location Forty-seven eucalypt remnants and six sites in continuous forest in the subhumid Midlands region of Tasmania, Australia. Methods Sites were censused over a two-year period, and environmental data were collected for remnants. The avifauna of the sites was classified and...

A major challenge in network ecology is to describe the full-range of species interactions in a community to create highly-resolved food-webs. We developed a molecular approach based on DNA full barcoding and mini-barcoding to describe difficult to observe plant-leaf miner-parasitoid interactions, consisting of animals commonly regarded as agricultural pests and their natural enemies. We tested...

Process Mining consists of extracting valuable information from event logs produced by Process Aware Information Systems (PAIS) which support business processes and generate event logs as a result of execution of the supported business processes. Alpha Miner is a popular algorithm in Process Mining which consists of discovering a process model from the event logs. Discovering process models fro...

Minimotif Miner (MnM) is a database and web system for analyzing short functional peptide motifs, termed minimotifs. We present an update to MnM growing the database from ∼300 000 to >1 000 000 minimotif consensus sequences and instances. This growth comes largely from updating data from existing databases and annotation of articles with high-throughput approaches analyzing different types of p...

Data Mining, also die Entdeckung verborgener Zusammenhänge mittels Methoden des statistischen und des maschinellen Lernens, wird gemeinhin als ein Feld für Spezialisten betrachtet. Diese erstellen mit häufig sündhaft teuren Softwarelösungen mehr oder weniger komplexe Analyseprozesse, um beispielsweise drohende Kündigungen oder die Verkaufszahlen eines Produkts zu prognostizieren. Der wirtschaft...

Existing Transactional Memory (TM) algorithms typically abort many transactions that could be safely committed. The extent to which a TM allows such spurious aborts is captured by the theory of Input Acceptance. Recently, the Time-Warping Multi-version (TWM) algorithm was proposed to minimize spurious aborts without hampering practical performance. In this work we seek to theoretically assess t...
