INTELLIGENT DATA ANALYSIS IN MEDICINE AND
PHARMACOLOGY
The IDAMAP workshop series is devoted to computational methods for
data analysis in medicine, biology and pharmacology that somehow
exploit expert knowledge of the problem domain. Such knowledge may be
available at different stages of the data-analysis and model-building
process.
Nowadays, machine-learning tools provide an effective means to derive
understandable diagnostic and prognostic rules; Bayesian structure and
parameter learning methods are capable of capturing the (in)dependence
structure hidden in data and of learning and updating the model's
parameters; clustering and instance-based learning methods, such as
case-based reasoning, may represent a crucial help to physicians in
their decision making process; the interpretation of time-ordered data
through the derivation and revision of temporal trends and other types
of temporal data abstraction provides a powerful instrument for event
detection and prognosis; data visualisation is increasingly becoming
an essential element in the overall process of knowledge discovery in
databases.
