Biological Knowledge Discovery Handbook 
Preprocessing, Mining and Postprocessing of Biological Data

The first comprehensive overview of preprocessing, mining,
and postprocessing of biological data

Molecular biology is undergoing exponential growth in both the
volume and complexity of biological data–and knowledge
discovery offers the capacity to automate complex search and data
analysis tasks. This book presents a vast overview of the most
recent developments on techniques and approaches in the field of
biological knowledge discovery and data mining (KDD)–providing
in-depth fundamental and technical field information on the most
important topics encountered.

Written by top experts, Biological Knowledge Discovery
Handbook: Preprocessing, Mining, and Postprocessing of Biological
Data covers the three main phases of knowledge discovery (data
preprocessing, data processing–also known as data
mining–and data postprocessing) and analyzes both verification
systems and discovery systems.
