Project Description:
The amount of electronic data in biomedical domains such as medical images,
mass spectrometric profiles, or SNP data are dramatically increasing so that automated
data mining tools constitute an indispensible technique in these domains.
The application domain puts particular challenges on machine learning methods such as
extremely high dimensionality and only sparse data, imbalanced class distributions, etc.
We developed a variety of highly flexible classification and data inspection tools which have been
applied to diverse areas including proteomic profiling and microarray analysis.
In this context, two (partially funded) seminars (a Dagstuhl seminar and a MPIPKS seminar)
gathering together experts in related fields were co-organized by Prof. Hammer.
