The theme for CSE590A will be 'Biomedical Applications of AI'. Applications from other fields often drive advances in Artificial Intelligence. Biology and medicine have served as a ready source of novel, interesting, challenging and important problems to drive innovation in AI. The advent and prevalence of high-throughput techniques, such as gene-expression microarrays, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chips and high-throughput screening of molecules for biological activity, have greatly increased the quantity of biological data available. Through a series of invited talks, this seminar will explore how researchers have used AI techniques to manage and interpret this newly available biological and medical data. The format will be informal and interactive and we expect to have fun discussions after the talks.
We will not use the cse590a mailing list. Instead, announcements about the seminar will go to uw-ai. If you do not already subscribe to uw-ai, then join by sending mail to uw-ai-request@cs.washington.edu, with the line "subscribe listname" in the body of the message. You are encouraged to discuss the presentations on the mailing list.
