Case contents: |
Lecture Content Human-computer interface and visualization. Computer-supported scientific visualization technique. Multimedia graphic communications. Elements of web graphical interfaces. Methods of distributed bioinformatics. Grid computing and data visualization. Methods of collecting, segmenting, filtering and displaying visual data. Consideration of the application of different visualization techniques and technology in the analysis of sequential data, categorical data and numerical data. Programmer techniques for the development of graphic data and their visualization. 3D structural bioinformatic visualization. Multidimensional visualization tools. Digital processing and statistical methods of analyzing information in an image. Statistical visual analysis. Classification and recognition of image content. Spatial statistical model. Spatial frequencies, correlations and structural extraction. Methods of analysis of the image of DNA micronises (microarrays). Design and implementation of bioinformatic visualization system. Visual network integration technology. Presentation of multimedia teleconference, telemedicine and VO (Virtual Organization) as an application of network cooperation in medicine and research. Content of the exercises: Practical work using Matlab on specific tasks. Application of NMR and modern microscopic instrumentation as part of practical tasks. Exercises on bioinformatic Grid applications, using EGEE e-Science infrastructure. The work takes place in smaller groups on concrete tasks on modern Grid (computer-mute) infrastructure.
