Description |
|
| Dear Colleagues, We welcome your excellent submissions to the BIOKDD 2013 workshop to be held in Chicago, IL along with ACM SIGKDD 2013. Please do forward this email to your network of contacts. The BIOKDD 2013 website is at: http://home.biokdd.org/biokdd13/ The goal of this workshop is to encourage researchers to take on the numerous challenges that Bioinformatics offers. This year, the workshop will feature the theme ofBuilding network and predictive models of biological processes and diseases using complex data. This field focuses on the use of computational approaches, especially from data mining and machine learning, and the large amount and variety of biological data being generated. The goal here is to build accurate predictive or descriptive network models of biological processes and diseases. These approaches have revolutionized the new age biology by enabling novel discoveries in basic biology and diseases like cancer and diabetes, as well as the development of therapeutics. We encourage papers that propose novel data mining techniques for areas including but not limited to: Building predictive models for complex phenotypes from large-scale biological data Discovering biological networks and pathways underlying biological processes and diseases Processing of new/next-generation sequencing (NGS) data for genome structural variation analysis, discovery of biomarkers and mutations, and disease risk assessment Discovery of genotype-phenotype associations Novel methods and frameworks for mining and integrating big biological data Comparative genomics Metagenome analysis using sequencing data RNA-seq and microarray-based gene expression analysis Genome-wide analysis of non-coding RNAs Genome-wide regulatory motif discovery Structural bioinformatics Correlating NGS with proteomics data analysis Functional annotation of genes and proteins Chemo-informatics: Drug discovery, Virtual screening and Combinatorial chemistry Knowledge discovery in clinical data and electronic medical records Special biological data management techniques Information visualization techniques for biological data Semantic webs and ontology-driven biological data integration methods Privacy and security issues in mining genomic and health databases Papers should be at most 10 pages long, single-spaced, in font size 10 or larger with one-inch margins on all sides. Paper should be submitted in PDF format through CMT at the following link: https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/BIOKDD2013 Dates: 5/10/2013 Paper Submission Due 6/7/2013 Notification of Acceptance 6/17/2013 Camera-ready Paper Due 8/11/2013 Workshop Presentation On Behalf of BioKDD 2013 PC Chairs - Gaurav, Huzefa & George |
