Processing and Managing Complex Data for Decision Support

Idea Group Publishing, 2006

In many decision support fields the data that is exploited tends to be more and more complex. To take this phenomenon into account, classical architectures of data warehouses or data mining algorithms must be completely re-evaluated.

Processing and Managing Complex Data for Decision Support provides readers with an overview of the emerging...

Mass Spectrometry and Genomic Analysis

Springer, 2001

The human genome project is set to revolutionise health care and medicine in the near future. The genetic make up of each individual gives clues as to the genetic factors that predispose one to a particular genetic disease. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs), single base changes in the nucleotide DNA sequence of individuals, are thought to...

Digital Dice: Computational Solutions to Practical Probability Problems

Princeton Press, 2008

"Paul Nahin's Digital Dice is a marvelous book, one that is even better than his Duelling Idiots. Nahin presents twenty-one great probability problems, from George Gamow's famous elevator paradox (as corrected by Donald Knuth) to a bewildering puzzle involving two rolls of toilet paper, and he solves them all with the aid...
