Disease Specific Ontology of Adverse Events: Ontology extension and adaptation for Chronic Kidney Disease.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: Adverse Event (AE) ontology can be used to support interoperability and computer-assisted reasoning of AEs. Despite significant progress in developing biomedical ontologies, they are facing the obstacle of adoption partly because those on...

The radiation oncology ontology (ROO): Publishing linked data in radiation oncology using semantic web and ontology techniques.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Personalized medicine is expected to yield improved health outcomes. Data mining over massive volumes of patients' clinical data is an appealing, low-cost and noninvasive approach toward personalization. Machine learning algorithms could be ...

Automated ontology generation framework powered by linked biomedical ontologies for disease-drug domain.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
OBJECTIVE AND BACKGROUND: The exponential growth of the unstructured data available in biomedical literature, and Electronic Health Record (EHR), requires powerful novel technologies and architectures to unlock the information hidden in the unstructu...

Biomedical ontology alignment: an approach based on representation learning.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: While representation learning techniques have shown great promise in application to a number of different NLP tasks, they have had little impact on the problem of ontology matching. Unlike past work that has focused on feature engineering...

EAPB: entropy-aware path-based metric for ontology quality.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Entropy has become increasingly popular in computer science and information theory because it can be used to measure the predictability and redundancy of knowledge bases, especially ontologies. However, current entropy applications that e...

Evaluating semantic relations in neural word embeddings with biomedical and general domain knowledge bases.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: In the past few years, neural word embeddings have been widely used in text mining. However, the vector representations of word embeddings mostly act as a black box in downstream applications using them, thereby limiting their interpretab...

CEDAR OnDemand: a browser extension to generate ontology-based scientific metadata.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Public biomedical data repositories often provide web-based interfaces to collect experimental metadata. However, these interfaces typically reflect the ad hoc metadata specification practices of the associated repositories, leading to a ...

Toward a standard ontology of surgical process models.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: The development of common ontologies has recently been identified as one of the key challenges in the emerging field of surgical data science (SDS). However, past and existing initiatives in the domain of surgery have mainly been focussing o...

From lexical regularities to axiomatic patterns for the quality assurance of biomedical terminologies and ontologies.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Ontologies and terminologies have been identified as key resources for the achievement of semantic interoperability in biomedical domains. The development of ontologies is performed as a joint work by domain experts and knowledge engineers. The maint...

Ontology-based literature mining and class effect analysis of adverse drug reactions associated with neuropathy-inducing drugs.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Adverse drug reactions (ADRs), also called as drug adverse events (AEs), are reported in the FDA drug labels; however, it is a big challenge to properly retrieve and analyze the ADRs and their potential relationships from textual data. Pr...
