Intelligent systems and machine learning in molecular biology


My major areas of research are artificial intelligence. medical informatics. and bioinformatics. In AI. my concentration is on expert problem solving and knowledge representation. pattern recognition. clustering. distributed problem solving and planning. multimodal interfaces and image interpretation. In medical informatics I am working on models for guidelines. on methods of medical decision support. biomedical imaging and predictive data mining. In bioinformatics I am working on structural domain parsing from protein sequence data. scaling. dimensionality reduction. and clustering methods for genomics and proteomics. and drug design.
