Abstract

The largest digital repository of information, the World Wide Web keeps growing exponentially and calls for data mining services to provide tailored web experiences. This chapter discusses the overview of information retrieval, knowledge discovery and data mining. It reviews the different stages of data mining and introduces the wide spread biological databanks, their explosion, integration, data warehousing, information retrieval, text mining, text repositories for biological research publications, domain specific search engines, web mining, biological networks and visualization, ontology and systems biology. This chapter also illustrates some technical jargon with picture analogy for a novice learner to understand the concepts clearly.
