Synopsis

Clustering techniques are increasingly being put to use in the analysis of high-throughput biological datasets. Novel computational techniques to analyse high throughput data in the form of sequences, gene and protein expressions, pathways, and images are becoming vital for understanding diseases and future drug discovery.

This book details the complete pathway of cluster analysis, from the basics of molecular biology to the generation of biological knowledge. The book also presents the latest clustering methods and clustering validation, thereby offering the reader a comprehensive review of clustering analysis in bioinformatics from the fundamentals through to state-of-the-art techniques and applications.

Key Features:

Offers a contemporary review of clustering methods and applications in the field of bioinformatics, with particular emphasis on gene expression analysis
Provides an excellent introduction to molecular biology with computer scientists and information engineering researchers in mind, laying out the basic biological knowledge behind the application of clustering analysis techniques in bioinformatics
Explains the structure and properties of many types of high-throughput datasets commonly found in biological studies
Discusses how clustering methods and their possible successors would be used to enhance the pace of biological discoveries in the future
Includes a companion website hosting a selected collection of codes and links to publicly available datasets

About the Author

Asoke K. Nandi, Department of Electronic & Computer Engineering, Brunel University London, UK
Prof. Nandi is Chair and Head of the Electronic and Computer Engineering Department at Brunel University London, UK. He leads the Signal Processing and Communications Research Group with interests in the areas of signal processing, machine learning, and communications research. He is a Finland Distinguished Professor at the University of Jyvaskyla, Finland. In 1983 Professor Nandi was a member of the UA1 team at CERN that discovered the three fundamental particles known as W+, W- and Z0, providing the evidence for the unification of the electromagnetic and weak forces, which was recognized by the Nobel Committee for Physics in 1984. He has authored or co-authored more than 190 journal papers, and 2 books. The Google Scholar h-index of his publications is 54. In 2010 he received the Glory of Bengal Award for his outstanding achievements in scientific research, and in 2012 was awarded the IEEE Heinrich Hertz Award. Prof. Nandi is a Fellow of the IEEE.
