Abstract

Brain Informatics is a new interdisciplinary field of science, which studies the mechanisms of human information processing and, in some cases, also mechanisms causing the development of cognitive and other mental disturbances. Like other e-Science disciplines, it is accompanied with collection of large distributed datasets, which have to be efficiently managed, processed and analyzed. The Grid is an appropriate platform allowing solution of such ambitious tasks. This paper presents a Grid-based infrastructure called GridMiner providing the kernel functionality, like workflow management, visualization, data preprocessing, filtering, transformation and integration, data mining and data warehousing services, etc., supporting analytical tasks required by the Brain Informatics research and applications.
