The 2nd Computational Methods for the Immune System function Workshop has been held in Madrid in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (BIBM 2018) in Madrid, Spain, from December 3 to 6, 2018. The workshop has been obtained 100% more submissions in respect to the first edition, highlighting a growing interest for the treated topics. The best papers (9) have been selected for extension in this special issue, with themes about immune system and disease simulation, computer-aided design of novel candidate vaccines, methods for the analysis of immune system involved diseases based on statistical methods, meta-heuristics and game theory, and modelling strategies for improving the simulation of the immune system dynamics.
第二届免疫计算方法研讨会在马德里与 2018 年 12 月 3 日至 6 日在西班牙马德里举行的 IEEE 国际生物信息学和生物医学会议(BIBM 2018)同时举行。与第一版相比,该研讨会的提交数量增加了 100%,这突显了人们对所处理主题的兴趣日益浓厚。最好的论文(9 篇)已被选中扩展为本期特刊,主题包括免疫系统和疾病模拟,新型候选疫苗的计算机辅助设计,基于统计方法,元启发式和博弈论的分析免疫系统相关疾病的方法,以及改善免疫系统动力学模拟的建模策略。
