Ben Shneiderman Bio-Informatics Visualization Workshop Human-Computer Interaction Lab University of Maryland, College Park http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/soh/w1.shtml May 30, 2002 Organizers Eric Baehrecke, University of Maryland Biotechnology Institute <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Ben Shneiderman, UMCP Department of Computer Science <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Bio-Informatics Visualization Workshop This workshop (25-35 participants) will present current implementations and challenges for researchers seeking to understand genomic and proteomic data by applying advanced visualization techniques. Current topics include DNA microarray chip data, genomic sequences, protein structures, gene ontologies, and biological pathways. Visualization methods include 2-d and 3-d scattergrams, color-coded heatmaps, hierarchical treemaps, temporal data searching, topographic displays, and hierarchical clustering presentations. Related data mining techniques that are enhanced by visualization include supervised and unsupervised classification/categorization, principal components analysis, and multi-dimensional scaling. Biologically relevant tasks include comparing samples, identifying similar and different genes, identifying targets, defining pathways, and generating hypotheses.
