Natural Selection, Inc. Publishes Article in Pharmaceutical Discovery

La Jolla, CA – Dr. Gary B. Fogel, Vice President, has published an article titled "Gene Expression Analysis Using Methods of Computational Intelligence" in the October issue of Pharmaceutical Discovery. The article investigates the use of evolutionary computation and artificial neural networks for pattern recognition of microarray data. Dr. Fogel concludes that as microarray usage continues to expand exponentially as a diagnostic tool, computational tools to support microarray analysis must expand as well, particularly in class prediction and class discovery. He argues that applying computational tools such as neural networks, evolutionary algorithms, and evolutionary computation to microarray data analysis are the best-fit methods for maximizing rapid accurate predictive analyses.
