Supporting the analysis of ontology evolution processes through the combination of static and dynamic scaling functions in OQuaRE.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: The biomedical community has now developed a significant number of ontologies. The curation of biomedical ontologies is a complex task and biomedical ontologies evolve rapidly, so new versions are regularly and frequently published in ont...

Dione: An OWL representation of ICD-10-CM for classifying patients' diseases.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine - Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) has been designed as standard clinical terminology for annotating Electronic Health Records (EHRs). EHRs textual information is used to classify patients' diseases into an...

Ontobee: A linked ontology data server to support ontology term dereferencing, linkage, query and integration.

Nucleic acids research
Linked Data (LD) aims to achieve interconnected data by representing entities using Unified Resource Identifiers (URIs), and sharing information using Resource Description Frameworks (RDFs) and HTTP. Ontologies, which logically represent entities and...

TrhOnt: building an ontology to assist rehabilitation processes.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: One of the current research efforts in the area of biomedicine is the representation of knowledge in a structured way so that reasoning can be performed on it. More precisely, in the field of physiotherapy, information such as the physiot...

Making adjustments to event annotations for improved biological event extraction.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Current state-of-the-art approaches to biological event extraction train statistical models in a supervised manner on corpora annotated with event triggers and event-argument relations. Inspecting such corpora, we observe that there is am...

Diagnosis, misdiagnosis, lucky guess, hearsay, and more: an ontological analysis.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Disease and diagnosis have been the subject of much ontological inquiry. However, the insights gained therein have not yet been well enough applied to the study, management, and improvement of data quality in electronic health records (EH...

The Ontology of Biological and Clinical Statistics (OBCS) for standardized and reproducible statistical analysis.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Statistics play a critical role in biological and clinical research. However, most reports of scientific results in the published literature make it difficult for the reader to reproduce the statistical analyses performed in achieving tho...

OntoBrowser: a collaborative tool for curation of ontologies by subject matter experts.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
UNLABELLED: The lack of controlled terminology and ontology usage leads to incomplete search results and poor interoperability between databases. One of the major underlying challenges of data integration is curating data to adhere to controlled term...

Knowledge Discovery from Biomedical Ontologies in Cross Domains.

PloS one
In recent years, there is an increasing demand for sharing and integration of medical data in biomedical research. In order to improve a health care system, it is required to support the integration of data by facilitating semantic interoperability s...

The Apollo Structured Vocabulary: an OWL2 ontology of phenomena in infectious disease epidemiology and population biology for use in epidemic simulation.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: We developed the Apollo Structured Vocabulary (Apollo-SV)-an OWL2 ontology of phenomena in infectious disease epidemiology and population biology-as part of a project whose goal is to increase the use of epidemic simulators in public heal...
