Mining in Bioinformatics

Abstract

Every other day, more and more we come to realize that knowledge and information becomes the driver of the progress from business to science. Every deal businessman makes, every experiment scientist conducts must rely on some sort of information that justifies that taken decision. In the era of the digital age, considering that we not only publish every bit of information in digital format but also let people add their thoughts and experiences onto those published content in such a social environment of the Internet, the amount of knowledge we can access is virtually limitless. However, even though the knowledge is infinite, we have to make our decisions in finite time, and fast. So the problem is finding the right information in the digital ocean of knowledge, which is pretty bigger endeavor than finding the needle in the haystack.
