Analysis of host-pathogen interactions via clustering, statistical analysis, and data visualization
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)Infectious diseases are caused by a variety of agents: viruses, bacteria, parasites, or even proteins. Using existing state-of-the-art methods and tools I developed myself, I studied aspects of infectious agents. To find ... -
Data analytics in sports : improving the accuracy of NFL draft selection using supervised learning
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)Machine learning methodologies have been widely accepted as successful data mining techniques. In recent years these methods have been applied to sports data sets with some marginal success. The NFL is a highly competitive ... -
Detecting genomic elements of extreme conservation in higher eukaryotes by integration of hash mapping and cache-oblivious in-memory computing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)Genomics is one of the first life science disciplines to enter the era of Big Data, facing challenges in all three dimensions--volume, variety, and velocity. Yet, in spite of a plethora of sequencing data, we are still far ... -
Efficient search and comparison algorithms for 3D protein binding site retrieval and structure alignment from large-scale databases
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)Finding similar 3D structures is crucial for discovering potential structural, evolutionary, and functional relationships among proteins. As the number of known protein structures has dramatically increased, traditional ... -
Graphical evolving transformation system machine
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)For years, scientists have challenged the machine intelligence problem. Learning classes of objects followed by the classification of objects into their classes is a common task in machine intelligence. For this task, two ... -
Mining host-pathogen interaction from biomedical literature
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] With infectious diseases affecting humans, animals, and plants, the knowledge on mechanisms of infection is critical in designing drugs as well as ... -
Studying macromolecular interactions on the large scale : a bioinformatics approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Characterization of macromolecular interactions is not only critical for understanding how macromolecules perform their biological functions, such as ... -
Understanding structure, function, and evolution of protein-protein interactions by computational modeling and analysis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)Currently, with the growth of experimental structural data on protein-protein interactions and larger protein complexes, the trend in computational biology and structural bioinformatics is towards applying such resources ...
