CIBB 2009
SIXTH INTERNATIONAL MEETING ON
COMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCE METHODS FOR BIOINFORMATICS AND BIOSTATISTICS
Genova (Italy) 15-17 October, 2009
Conference Website: http://cibb09.disi.unige.it/
The main goal of the CIBB meetings is to provide a forum open to researchers
from different disciplines to present and discuss problems concerning
computational techniques in bioinformatics, systems biology and medical
informatics with a particular focus on Neural Networks, Machine Learning,
Fuzzy Logic, and Evolutionary Computation methods.
CIBB 2009 is jointly organized by:
*INNS International Neural Network Society SIG Bioinformatics
*GNCS Gruppo Nazionale Calcolo Scientifico
*HHF Human Health Foundation Onlus
*SIREN Italian Neural Networks Society
*RNBIO The Italian Network for Oncology Bioinformatics
*DISI Dept. Computer and Information Sciences - Univ. Genova (Italy)
*DMI Dipartimento di Matematica e Informatica - Univ. Salerno (Italy)
Technical areas addressed by CIBB 2009 include, but are not limited to:
* Sequence analysis, promoter analysis and identification of transcription
factor binding sites
* Gene expression data analysis
* Methods for the integration of clinical and genetic data
* Algorithms for alternative splicing analysis
* Methods for the functional classification of genes
* Methods for the unsupervised analysis, validation and visualization of
structures discovered in bio-molecular data
* Prediction of secondary and tertiary protein structures
* Mass spectrometry data analysis in proteomics
* Methods for comparative genomics
* Algorithms for molecular evolution and phylogenetic analysis
* Mathematical modelling and simulation of biological systems
* Heterogeneous data integration and data fusion for diagnostics
* Bio-molecular databases and data mining
* Algorithms for pharmacogenetics
* Bio-medical text mining and imaging
* Methods for diagnosis and prognosis
* Software tools for bioinformatics
Key-note lecturers:
Taishin Nomura, Osaka University, Japan
L. Gwenn Volkert, Kent State University, Kent, OH, USA
Gilles Bernot, University of Nice Sophia Antipolis,France
Leif E. Peterson, Methodist Hospital Research Institute Houston, TX, USA
The scientific program will include, besides the key-note lectures, some
tutorials (included in the registration fee) and contributed papers that
will be presented in oral or poster sessions.
The following Special Sessions will be included in the program:
Combining Bayesian and Machine Learning Approaches in Bioinformatics:
State of Art and Future Perspectives, organized by Claudia Angelini,
Pietro Lio', Luciano Milanesi <[log in to unmask]>.
ISMDS - Intelligent Systems for Medical Decisions Support, organized by
Alexandru Floaresand Florin Manolache <[log in to unmask]>.
Using game-theoretical tools in Bioinformatics, organized by Fioravante
Patrone <[log in to unmask]>.
Data Clustering and Bioinformatics, organized by Vassilis P. Plagianakos
Dimitris K. Tasoulis <[log in to unmask]>.
Accepted papers will be published in the compact disk of conference
proceedings.
A selection of papers presented at CIBB 2009 will be published in
revised extended form as a post conference volume of Lecture Notes
in Bioinformatics LNBI/LNCS series of Springer Verlag.
We are also planning to edit a special issue of an international
journal containing contributions of the authors of the best papers
presented to CIBB 2009.
