Synopsis

In the quest to understand and model the healthy or sick human body, re- searchers and medical doctors are utilizing more and more quantitative tools and techniques. This trend is pushing the envelope of a new field we call Biomedical Computing, as an exciting frontier among signal processing, pattern recognition, optimization, nonlinear dynamics, computer science and biology, chemistry and medicine. A conference on Biocomputing was held during February 25-27, 2001 at the University of Florida. The conference was sponsored by the Center for Applied Optimization, the Computational Neuroengineering Center, the Biomedical En- gineering Program (through a Whitaker Foundation grant), the Brain Institute, the School of Engineering, and the University of Florida Research & Graduate Programs. The conference provided a forum for researchers to discuss and present new directions in Biocomputing. The well-attended three days event was highlighted by the presence of top researchers in the field who presented their work in Biocomputing. This volume contains a selective collection of ref- ereed papers based on talks presented at this conference. You will find seminal contributions in genomics, global optimization, computational neuroscience, FMRI, brain dynamics, epileptic seizure prediction and cancer diagnostics. We would like to take the opportunity to thank the sponsors, the authors of the papers, the anonymous referees, and Kluwer Academic Publishers for making the conference successful and the publication of this volume possible.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In the quest to understand and model healthy or sick human body functions, researchers and medical doctors are utilizing more and more quantitative tools and techniques. This trend is advancing the development of the new field of biomedical computing, which is an interface between signal processing, pattern recognition, optimization, nonlinear dynamics, computer science and biology, chemistry and medicine. This volume contains a collection of refereed papers. Included are seminal contributions in genomics, global optimization in biomedicine, computational neuroscience, FMRI, brain dynamics, epileptic seizure prediction and cancer diagnostics. Audience: The book is addressed not only to students of biomedical engineering and biocomputing, but to all scientists in various disciplines who need to learn more about biomedical computing.
