Chapter 16 PROBABILISTIC QUERYING AND MINING OF BIOLOGICAL IMAGES
نویسندگان
چکیده
Automated sample preparation and image acquisition equipment has enabled new kinds of large-scale biological experiments. Such experiments have led to some notable successes, but their wider application to diverse biological questions requires robust, fully automated image analysis. This chapter examines the role in probabilistic information in managing ambiguity in the different stages of image analysis by presenting techniques for segmenting, measuring, querying, and mining biological images.

Probabilistic Inductive Querying Using ProbLog
We study how probabilistic reasoning and inductive querying can be combined within ProbLog, a recent probabilistic extension of Prolog. ProbLog can be regarded as a database system that supports both probabilistic and inductive reasoning through a variety of querying mechanisms. After a short introduction to ProbLog, we provide a survey of the different types of inductive queries that ProbLog s...
متن کاملModeling, Querying, and Mining Uncertain XML Data
This chapter deals with data mining in uncertain XML data models, this uncertainty typically coming from imprecise automatic processes. We first review the literature on modeling uncertain data, starting with well-studied relational models and moving then to their semistructured counterparts. We focus on a specific probabilistic XML model, that allows representing arbitrary finite distributions...
متن کاملSimilarity Search and Mining in Uncertain Databases
Managing, searching and mining uncertain data has achieved much attention in the database community recently due to new sensor technologies and new ways of collecting data. There is a number of challenges in terms of collecting, modelling, representing, querying, indexing and mining uncertain data. In its scope, the diversity of approaches addressing these topics is very high because the underl...
متن کاملRemarks on a Fuzzy Approach to Flexible Database Querying, Its Extension and Relation to Data Mining and Summarization
For an effective and efficient information search of databases, various issues should be solved. A very important one, though still usually neglected by traditional database management systems, is related to a proper representation of user preferences and intentions, and then their representation in querying languages. In many scenarios, they are not clear-cut, and often have their original for...
متن کاملDeclarative and Efficient Querying on Protein Secondary Structures
In spite of the many decades of progress in database research, surprisingly scientists in the life sciences community still struggle with inefficient and awkward tools for querying biological datasets. This work highlights a specific problem involving searching large volumes of protein datasets based on their secondary structure. In this chapter we define an intuitive query language that can be...
