The Multidimensional Data Analysis and Knowledge Management Laboratory in the Department of Computer Engineering and Informatics of the University of Patras is a laboratory devoted to research and educational activities related to the development of methodologies, algorithms and software tools for the efficient analysis and management of multidimensional data. The lab focuses on the development of similarity metrics for various types of data, techniques for data preprocessing and representation, feature extraction, dimensionality reduction, pattern detection, classification, clustering, association discovery, data modeling and simulation, and on the application of these methodologies to critical sectors such as medicine, biology, the environment, etc. The lab members are engaged in the analysis of various spatiotemporal data obtained from a wide range of modalities. The laboratory collaborates with other research units at the University of Patras including the Medical Image Processing and Analysis Group and the Neurophysiology Lab of the University of Patras, School of Medicine and other institutes in Greece such as the Biomedical Research Foundation, Academy of Athens, the Hellenic Open University, etc. The Laboratory also has active collaboration with international researchers at several foreign institutions including Carnegie Mellon University, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Univ. of Pennsylvania, Temple Univ., Univ. of California Riverside, Univ. of Maryland, Indiana Univ., Yale, and University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Rutgers University, Kings College London (KCL), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Ecole Centrale de Paris, institutes such as the National Institutes of Health in the US as well as industrial partners in US and Europe.
