| Abstract | Technical innovations in radiology, such as advanced cross-sectional imaging methods, have opened up new vistas for the exploration of structure and function of the human body enabling both high spatial and temporal resolution. However, these techniques have led to vast amounts of data whose precise and reliable visual analysis by radiologists requires a considerable amount of human intervention and expertise, thus resulting in a cost factor of substantial economic relevance. Hence, the computer-assisted analysis of biomedical image data has moved into the focus of interest as an issue of high priority research efforts. In this context, innovative approaches to exploratory analysis of huge complex spatio-temporal patterns play a key role to improve computer-assisted signal and image processing in radiology. Examples of such approaches are various unsupervised vector quantization methods or supervised function approximation techniques, such as Generalized Radial-Basis-Functions- (GRBF-) neural networks. Recent developments motivated by concepts of computational intelligence are the ‘Deformable Feature Map’ (DM) as an algorithm for self-organized model adaptation, the ‘Mutual Connectivity Analysis’ (MCA) as an instrument for the analysis of large time-series ensembles and the ‘Exploratory Observation Machine’ (XOM) as a novel general framework for learning by self-organization—three methods that the author has invented and applied to biomedical real-world applications. This contribution covers both conceptual foundations and applications of such methods for pattern recognition and analysis to a wide scope of radiological data sets, such as structural and functional segmentation in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), ranging from functional MRI for human brain mapping to the monitoring of disease progression in multiple sclerosis by automatic lesion segmentation, as well as novel approaches to image time-series analysis in MRI mammography for breast cancer diagnosis. Current projects related to the modeling of speech production and to genome-wide expression analysis of microarray data in bioinformatics confirm the broad applicability of the presented methods. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
