Abstract
A learning machine is used to extract useful information from vast quantities of biological data. The method includes pre-processing of training data and test data to add dimensionality or to identify missing or erroneous data points. The training data is used to train the learning machine after which the success of the training is tested using the test data. The test output is pre-processed to determine whether the knowledge discovered from the pre-processed test data set is desirable. After the training has been confirmed, live biological data can be pre-processed then input into the trained learning machine for extraction of useful information. In the preferred embodiment, the learning machine is one or more support vector machines.
