Ontology based mining of pathogen-disease associations from literature.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Infectious diseases claim millions of lives especially in the developing countries each year. Identification of causative pathogens accurately and rapidly plays a key role in the success of treatment. To support infectious disease researc...

Enhancing Clinical Data and Clinical Research Data with Biomedical Ontologies - Insights from the Knowledge Representation Perspective.

Yearbook of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES: There exists a communication gap between the biomedical informatics community on one side and the computer science/artificial intelligence community on the other side regarding the meaning of the terms "semantic integration" and "knowledg...

Architecture and usability of OntoKeeper, an ontology evaluation tool.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: The existing community-wide bodies of biomedical ontologies are known to contain quality and content problems. Past research has revealed various errors related to their semantics and logical structure. Automated tools may help to ease th...

ROBOT: A Tool for Automating Ontology Workflows.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Ontologies are invaluable in the life sciences, but building and maintaining ontologies often requires a challenging number of distinct tasks such as running automated reasoners and quality control checks, extracting dependencies and appl...

Large-Scale Coarse-to-Fine Object Retrieval Ontology and Deep Local Multitask Learning.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Object retrieval plays an increasingly important role in video surveillance, digital marketing, e-commerce, etc. It is facing challenges such as large-scale datasets, imbalanced data, viewpoint, cluster background, and fine-grained details (attribute...

PhenPath: a tool for characterizing biological functions underlying different phenotypes.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: Many diseases are associated with complex patterns of symptoms and phenotypic manifestations. Parsimonious explanations aim at reconciling the multiplicity of phenotypic traits with the perturbation of one or few biological functions. For...

Phenotype annotation with the ontology of microbial phenotypes (OMP).

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Microbial genetics has formed a foundation for understanding many aspects of biology. Systematic annotation that supports computational data mining should reveal further insights for microbes, microbiomes, and conserved functions beyond m...

HPO2Vec+: Leveraging heterogeneous knowledge resources to enrich node embeddings for the Human Phenotype Ontology.

Journal of biomedical informatics
BACKGROUND: In precision medicine, deep phenotyping is defined as the precise and comprehensive analysis of phenotypic abnormalities, aiming to acquire a better understanding of the natural history of a disease and its genotype-phenotype associations...

Predicting instances of pathway ontology classes for pathway integration.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: To improve the outcomes of biological pathway analysis, a better way of integrating pathway data is needed. Ontologies can be used to organize data from disparate sources, and we leverage the Pathway Ontology as a unifying ontology for or...
