Motivation: Not individual single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), but high-order interactions of SNPs are assumed to be responsible for complex diseases such as cancer. Therefore, one of the major goals of genetic association studies concerned with such genotype data is the identification of...

Complex, often high-dimensional time series are observed in medical applications such as intensive care. We review statistical tools for intelligent alarm systems, which are helpful for guiding medical decision-making in time-critical situations. The procedures described can also be applied for...
