ix, 400 pages : 27 cm, This book provides a detailed overview of current research in kernel methods and their applications to computational biology. Following three introductory chapters -- an introduction to molecular and computational biology, a short review of kernel methods that focuses on intuitive concepts rather than technical details, and a detailed survey of recent applications of kernel methods in computational biology -- the book is divided into three sections that reflect three general trends in current research. The first part presents different ideas for the design of kernel functions specifically adapted to various biological data; the second part covers different approaches to learning from heterogeneous data; and the third part offers examples of successful applications of support vector machine methods, \"A Bradford book.\", Includes bibliographical references (pages 357-389) and index, 1.
