Abstract
This talk explains reconstructability analysis (RA), a graphical modeling methodology based in information theory & graph theory which overlaps more familiar machine learning & statistical methods such as log-linear models & Bayesian networks. The talk reports on the use of RA in a recent bioinformatics study of human gene (SNP) - disease (diabetes) association & epistasis & in some other biomedical applications of RA.
Keywords: Reconstructability Analysis, biomedical research, bioinformatics, categorical data, multivariate statistics, exploratory modeling, confirmatory modeling
