Bioinformatics can beexplained as the science of developing algorithms, applicatiou tools, and computer databases and so on, for the purpose of supporting and enhancing biological research. Bioinformatic information systems (BIS) typically handle large data sets and the amount of the data goes up exponentially. Another impediment to easy extraction and retrieval of genomic data in BIS is the need to access different sites for similar information. Recently. there has been some attempts to integrate bioinformatics data in the World Wide Web (WWW) among the bioinformatics community by the internet computing technology. However, the work to integrate bioinformatics data on a universal platform has some problems because of the lack of standard, terminologies, semantics, and ontologies about bioinformatics. In this paper, an XML-based BIS architecture is proposed as an integrated BIS framework. The XML and related technologies allow the creation of meaningful information tags to exchange data between various databases as a standard format, and to create more simple interfaces. This integrated BIS framework has bioinformatic architectural components which is used in the Corporate Information Factory (CIF) method.

The difficulties in dealing with the Bioinformatics data come more from its idiosyncrasies than from its quantity Currently researchers need to an easy method for data exchange, manage, update. In order to integrate and manage all kinds of biological data, it is reasonable to adopt XML as standard tool since XML is independent of operating system, programming language and hardware platform. Although XML in Bioinformatics has been used widely as a standard notation abroad, however it is the beginning step in the domestic research. This article reviews a basic concept of XML and how to apply XML modeling in Bioinformatics. In addition we present XML applications for genomic sequences, structures and genetic network modeling.

Genomic approach produces massive amount of data within a short time period, New high-throughput automatic sequencers can generate over a million nucleotide sequence information overnight. A typical DNA chip experiment produces tens of thousands expression information, not to mention the tens of megabyte image files, These data must be handled automatically by computer and stored in electronic database, Thus there is a need for systematic approach of data collection, processing, and analysis. DNA sequence information is translated into amino acid sequence and is analyzed for key motif related to its biological and/or biochemical function. Functional genomics will play a significant role in identifying novel drug targets and diagnostic markers for serious diseases. As an enabling technology for functional genomics, bioinformatics is in great need worldwide, In Korea, a new functional genomics project has been recently launched and it focuses on identi☞ing genes associated with cancers prevalent in Korea, namely gastric and hepatic cancers, This involves gene discovery by high throughput sequencing of cancer cDNA libraries, gene expression profiling by DNA microarray and proteomics, and SNP profiling in Korea patient population, Our bioinformatics team will support all these activities by collecting, processing and analyzing these data.

Machine learning and data mining have found many applications in biological domains, where we look to build predictive models based on labeled training data. However, in practice, high quality labeled data is scarce, and to label new data incurs high costs. Transfer and multitask learning offer an attractive alternative, by allowing useful knowledge to be extracted and transferred from data in auxiliary domains helps counter the lack of data problem in the target domain. In this article, we survey recent advances in transfer and multitask learning for bioinformatics applications. In particular, we survey several key bioinformatics application areas, including sequence classification, gene expression data analysis, biological network reconstruction and biomedical applications.

Gene expression studies require statistical experimental designs and validation before laboratory confirmation. Various clustering approaches, such as hierarchical, Kmeans, SOM are commonly used for unsupervised learning in gene expression data. Several classification methods, such as gene voting, SVM, or discriminant analysis are used for supervised lerning, where well-defined response classification is possible. Estimating gene-condition interaction effects require advanced, computationally-intensive statistical approaches.

As a part of the era of human centric applications people started to care about their well being utilizing any possible mean. This paper proposes a framework for real time on-body sensor health-care system, addresses the current issues in such systems, and utilizes an enhanced online divisive agglomerative clustering algorithm (EODAC); an algorithm that builds a top-down tree-like structure of clusters that evolves with streaming data to rationally cluster on-body sensor data and give accurate diagnoses remotely, guaranteeing high performance, and scalability. Furthermore it does not depend on the number of data points.

With the advent of DNA microarray and "chip" technologies, gene expression in an organism can be monitored on a genomic scale, allowing the transcription levels of many genes to be measured simultaneously. Functional interpretation of massive expression data and linking such data to DNA sequences have become the new challenges to bioinformatics. I will us yeast cell cycle expression data analysis as an example to demonstrate how special database and computational methods may be used for extracting functional information, I will also briefly describe a novel clustering algorithm which has been applied to the cell cycle data.

The Korean Bioinformation Center (KOBIC) is a national bioinformatics research center in Korea. We developed many bioinformatics algorithms and applications to facilitate the biological interpretation of OMICS data. Here we present an introduction to major bioinformatics resources of databases and tools developed at KOBIC. These resources are classified into three main fields: genome, proteome, and literature. In the genomic resources, we constructed several pipelines for next generation sequencing (NGS) data processing and developed analysis algorithms and web-based database servers including miRGator, ESTpass, and CleanEST. We also built integrated databases and servers for microarray expression data such as MDCDP. As for the proteome data, VnD database, WDAC, Localizome, and CHARMM_HM web servers are available for various purposes. We constructed IntoPub server and Patome database in the literature field. We continue constructing and maintaining the bioinformatics infrastructure and developing algorithms.

In most biological laboratory, sequences from sequence machine are stored into file disks as simple files. It will be hard work to store and manage the sequence data with consistency and integrity such as storing redundant files. It is required needed to develop a system which integrated and managed genome data with consistency and integrity for accurate sequence analysis. There fore, in this paper, we not only store gene and protein sequence data through sequencing but also manage them. We also make a integrate schema for transforming the file formats and design database system using it. As integrated schema is designed as a BSML, it is possible to apply a style language of XSL. From this, we can transfer among heterogeneous sequence formats.
