abstract = "This work presents algorithms based on evolutionary
computation for pattern classification and
identification of protein networks and their
application for transcriptomics and proteomics
databases. There are three parts in this work. The
first part (chapters 1-3) brings overview of pattern
recognition methods applied in biology, pattern
classification algorithms using evolutionary
computation, and methods for inference of protein
networks. Chapter 2 and 3 are overview of background
methods such as genetic algorithm, genetic programming,
kernel methods and cluster analysis. The second part
consists of chapters 4 to 8. Two algorithms for binary
classification and three for single class
classification are shown. Their applications for
transcriptomics and proteomics database and comparisons
with six popular pattern classification methods are
tested. The last part which contains chapter 9 and 10
shows two algorithms for inference of protein
interaction networks. Parallel evolutionary computing
using the island model was applied in the second part
and the third part to increase the performance and the
quality of results. Chapter 11 presents the programs
using the above mentioned algorithms. In appendix B,
two breast cancer databases are used to test the
pattern classification algorithms that are mentioned in
the second part.",
