Based on an appropriate RDF Query Language the generated XML documents can be parsed in order to: (i) homogenize their content (according to the adopted data-models and ontologies); and (ii) apply dynamic querying operations in order to generate sets of data on which intelligent data processing operation could be uniformly applied. Syntactically homogeneous access to distributed data sources is typically provided by way of wrappers (Thiran, Hainaut, & Houben, 2005; Hernandez, & Kambhampati, 2004).

Another important problem is that the models’ assumptions are not always analysed in detail. It is common practice to assume Gaussian distributions or equal class priors due to their mathematical tractability, although they are not applicable to all contexts. Computational Methods and Tools for Decision Support in Biomedicine Biomedical datasets usually consist of features of different modalities. Data types can range from CT images, to EEGs, to blood tests, to microarray data or experts’ opinions (Acharya, Wasserman, Stevens, & Hinojosa, 1995).
