Bioinformatics

Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field of science that develops methods and software tools for understanding biological data, especially when the data sets are large and complex.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Bioinformatics

Biological data visualization is a branch of bioinformatics concerned with the application of computer graphics, scientific visualization, and information visualization to different areas of the life sciences. Integrative bioinformatics and Biological data visualization are bioinformatics.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Biological data visualization

Biological database

Biological databases are libraries of biological sciences, collected from scientific experiments, published literature, high-throughput experiment technology, and computational analysis.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Biological database

Data

In common usage, data is a collection of discrete or continuous values that convey information, describing the quantity, quality, fact, statistics, other basic units of meaning, or simply sequences of symbols that may be further interpreted formally.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Data

Data integration

Data integration involves combining data residing in different sources and providing users with a unified view of them.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Data integration

Data mining

Data mining is the process of extracting and discovering patterns in large data sets involving methods at the intersection of machine learning, statistics, and database systems.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Data mining

Data warehouse

In computing, a data warehouse (DW or DWH), also known as an enterprise data warehouse (EDW), is a system used for reporting and data analysis and is considered a core component of business intelligence.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Data warehouse

Ensembl genome database project

Ensembl genome database project is a scientific project at the European Bioinformatics Institute, which provides a centralized resource for geneticists, molecular biologists and other researchers studying the genomes of our own species and other vertebrates and model organisms. Integrative bioinformatics and Ensembl genome database project are bioinformatics.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Ensembl genome database project

File format

A file format is a standard way that information is encoded for storage in a computer file.

See Integrative bioinformatics and File format

GoPubMed

GoPubMed was a knowledge-based search engine for biomedical texts. Integrative bioinformatics and GoPubMed are bioinformatics.

See Integrative bioinformatics and GoPubMed

High-throughput screening

High-throughput screening (HTS) is a method for scientific discovery especially used in drug discovery and relevant to the fields of biology, materials science and chemistry.

See Integrative bioinformatics and High-throughput screening

Information repository

In information technology, an information repository or simply a repository is "a central place in which an aggregation of data is kept and maintained in an organized way, usually in computer storage." It "may be just the aggregation of data itself into some accessible place of storage or it may also imply some ability to selectively extract data.".

See Integrative bioinformatics and Information repository

InterMine

InterMine is an open source data warehouse system, licensed under the LGPL 2.1.

See Integrative bioinformatics and InterMine

List of life sciences

This list of life sciences comprises the branches of science that involve the scientific study of life – such as microorganisms, plants, and animals including human beings.

See Integrative bioinformatics and List of life sciences

List of omics topics in biology

Inspired by the terms genome and genomics, other words to describe complete biological datasets, mostly sets of biomolecules originating from one organism, have been coined with the suffix -ome and -omics.

See Integrative bioinformatics and List of omics topics in biology

Machine-readable medium and data

In communications and computing, a machine-readable medium (or computer-readable medium) is a medium capable of storing data in a format easily readable by a digital computer or a sensor.

See Integrative bioinformatics and Machine-readable medium and data

Metadata (or metainformation) is "data that provides information about other data", but not the content of the data itself, such as the text of a message or the image itself.
