Bioinformatics Visualization
HCIL conducts other research in Biodiversity Informatics visualization
Introduction
The Human-Computer Interaction
Lab at the University of
Maryland pursues several projects with applications to
bioinformatics, especially analysis of genomic data from microarray
gene chips. We cooperate with the Center for
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology.
Our work in this area uses the principles of Information
Visualization to develop tools that can be used to
interactively analyze the ever-larger data sets that result
from continuing advances in bioinformatics.
Our current efforts have been focused on two types of data sets:
- Microarray data: Data sets containing expression levels for 100-20,000 genes under 2-40 experimental conditions
- Nucleotide Sequence data: Analyzing nucleotide sequences in order to find weak signals involved in splicing.
