In this article, we address the problem of the classification of the health state of the colon's wall of mice, possibly injured by cancer with machine learning approaches. This problem is essential for translational research on cancer and is a priori...
Thyroid nodules are a common clinical problem. Ultrasonography (US) is the main tool used to sensitively diagnose thyroid cancer. Although US is non-invasive and can accurately differentiate benign and malignant thyroid nodules, it is subjective and ...
BACKGROUND: Identifying splice sites is a necessary step to analyze the location and structure of genes. Two dinucleotides, GT and AG, are highly frequent on splice sites, and many other patterns are also on splice sites with important biological fun...

BACKGROUND: Family history information (FHI) described in unstructured electronic health records (EHRs) is a valuable information source for patient care and scientific researches. Since FHI is usually described in the format of free text, the entire...
BACKGROUND: With the global spread of multidrug resistance in pathogenic microbes, infectious diseases emerge as a key public health concern of the recent time. Identification of host genes associated with infectious diseases will improve our underst...
BACKGROUND: In biomedical text mining, named entity recognition (NER) is an important task used to extract information from biomedical articles. Previously proposed methods for NER are dictionary- or rule-based methods and machine learning approaches...
BACKGROUND: Interactions between protein and nucleic acid molecules are essential to a variety of cellular processes. A large amount of interaction data generated by high-throughput technologies have triggered the development of several computational...
BACKGROUND: Given its narrow therapeutic range, digoxin's pharmacokinetic parameters in infants are difficult to predict due to variation in birth weight and gestational age, especially for critically ill newborns. There is limited evidence to suppor...
BACKGROUND: The three-dimensional (3D) structure of chromatins plays significant roles during cell differentiation and development. Hi-C and other 3C-based technologies allow us to look deep into the chromatin architectures. Many studies have suggest...
BACKGROUND: There are many different types of microRNAs (miRNAs) and elucidating their functions is still under intensive research. A fundamental step in functional annotation of a new miRNA is to classify it into characterized miRNA families, such a...
