Ontological interpretation of biomedical database content.

Journal of biomedical semantics Jun 26, 2017
BACKGROUND: Biological databases store data about laboratory experiments, together with semantic annotations, in order to support data aggregation and retrieval. The exact meaning of such annotations in the context of a database record is often ambig...

Disease Compass- a navigation system for disease knowledge based on ontology and linked data techniques.

Journal of biomedical semantics Jun 19, 2017
BACKGROUND: Medical ontologies are expected to contribute to the effective use of medical information resources that store considerable amount of data. In this study, we focused on disease ontology because the complicated mechanisms of diseases are r...

An empirical analysis of ontology reuse in BioPortal.

Journal of biomedical informatics Jun 2, 2017
Biomedical ontologies often reuse content (i.e., classes and properties) from other ontologies. Content reuse enables a consistent representation of a domain and reusing content can save an ontology author significant time and effort. Prior studies h...

Bacterial Virus Ontology; Coordinating across Databases.

Viruses May 23, 2017
Bacterial viruses, also called bacteriophages, display a great genetic diversity and utilize unique processes for infecting and reproducing within a host cell. All these processes were investigated and indexed in the ViralZone knowledge base. To faci...

Modulated evaluation metrics for drug-based ontologies.

Journal of biomedical semantics Apr 24, 2017
BACKGROUND: Research for ontology evaluation is scarce. If biomedical ontological datasets and knowledgebases are to be widely used, there needs to be quality control and evaluation for the content and structure of the ontology. This paper introduces...

Using classification models for the generation of disease-specific medications from biomedical literature and clinical data repository.

Journal of biomedical informatics Apr 20, 2017
OBJECTIVE: Mining disease-specific associations from existing knowledge resources can be useful for building disease-specific ontologies and supporting knowledge-based applications. Many association mining techniques have been exploited. However, the...
