Call for Contributions
for the Machine Learning in Systems Biology Workshop (MLSB 2012) in
Basel, Switzerland, September 8 and 9, 2012
http://mlsb.cc/cfc
MLSB12, the Sixth International Workshop on Machine Learning in
Systems Biology will be held in Basel, Switzerland on September 8 and
9, 2012. The Workshop is organized as "Satellite Meeting" of the 11th
European Conference on Computational Biology (ECCB).
The aim of this workshop is to contribute to the cross-fertilization
between the research in machine learning methods and their
applications to systems biology (i.e., complex biological and medical
questions) by bringing together method developers and
experimentalists. We encourage submissions bringing forward methods
for discovering complex structures (e.g. interaction networks,
molecule structures) and methods supporting genome-wide data analysis.
Submissions
We invite you to submit an extended abstract of up to 2 pages describing new or recently published (2012) results, formatted according to the NIPS style format (MLSB is not double-blind this year). Each extended abstract must be submitted online via the Easychair submission system
The extended abstracts will be reviewed by the scientific programme committee. They will be selected for oral or poster presentation according to their originality and relevance to the workshop topics. Electronic versions of the extended abstracts will be accessible to the participants prior to the conference, distributed in hardcopy form to participants at the conference, and will be made publicly available on the conference web site after the conference. However, the book of abstracts will not be published and the extended abstracts will not constitute a formal publication.
Key Dates
- June 7 - Extended abstract submission deadline (23:59 in the time zone of your choice).
- June 28 - Author Notification
Topics
We encourage submissions bringing forward methods
for discovering complex structures (e.g. interaction networks,
