Probabilistic graphical models for integration of complex data and discovery of causal models in biology

Satellite meeting of JOBIM'2009
Nantes, France

This meeting aims at providing an opportunity for researchers in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Biology and Mathematics, to meet and discuss the use of probabilistic graphical models to tackle problems in the fields of Biology and Medical Research. Probabilistic graphical models offer an adapted framework to infer knowledge from data whose part is uncertain. Regarding the causality concept, these models have proven useful to exhibit data dependencies, as well as predicting experiment designs. Thus, the graphical model formalism is naturally the core of a flourishing research field.

During the meeting, conferences and talks will cover a range of recent developments and works under development, as well as applications, in relation with machine learning and statistical inference performed in the graphical model framework used for biology or biomedical research.

key-words : complex data-mining, probabilistic graphical models, bayesian networks, statistical inference, data analysis
