Final Call for Papers
2006 Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Bioinformatics (PRIB'06)
August 20, 2006
Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, Hong Kong
Sponsored by
The IAPR Technical Committee (TC-20) on Pattern Recognition for
Bioinformatics
Organized by
School of Computer Engineering, Nanyang Technological University,
Singapore
Computer Science and Engineering, the Pennsylvania State University, USA
Held along with the International Conference on Pattern Recognition
(ICPR'06):
http://www.comp.hkbu.edu.hk/~icpr06/
The goal of the workshop is to present recent research results,
including significant
work-in-progress in the areas of pattern recognition applied to
bioinformatics.
It will bring together top researchers, practitioners, and students from
around the world
to discuss the applications of pattern recognition methods in the field
of bioinformatics
to solve problems in life sciences.
Topics of applications include but are not limited to: sequence
analysis, gene and protein
expression data analysis, structure prediction and folding, protein
docking and drug design,
metabolic pathway analysis, medical imaging and a variety of other
topics.
Pattern recognition techniques of interests include: statistical,
syntactic, and structural
approaches, neural networks, fuzzy techniques, genetic algorithms,
graphical models, data
mining techniques and their hybrids.
The papers presented at the workshop will be published in the workshop
proceedings.
The papers should follow IEEE conference format, as stipulated by
ICPR'06, and not
exceed 6 pages.
The IEEE conference proceeding formatting guidelines (8.5"x11") are
located here:

Important Dates:
Deadline for paper submission: January 15, 2006
Author notification: March 15, 2006
Deadline for camera-ready papers: May 1, 2006
The extended versions of the selected papers will be invited for
publication in an edited book
that we plan to submit to the Imperial College Press for publication in
their "Advances in
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology" book series.
