Abstract

"As an important experimental technology, DNA microarray provides an effective way to measure the expression levels of tens of thousands of genes simultaneously under different conditions, which makes it possible to investigate the gene activities of the whole genome. However, computational challenges have to be faced as a result of the large volume of generated data. In this dissertation, two important applications of microarray data, i.e., genetic regulatory networks inference and cancer classification, are addressed with machine learning and neural networks"--Abstract, page iii.
