Summarizing an Ontology: A "Big Knowledge" Coverage Approach.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Maintenance and use of a large ontology, consisting of thousands of knowledge assertions, are hampered by its scope and complexity. It is important to provide tools for summarization of ontology content in order to facilitate user "big picture" compr...

Leveraging Event Reporting Through Knowledge Support: A Knowledge-Based Approach to Promoting Patient Fall Prevention.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Patient falls are a common safety event type that impairs the healthcare quality. Strategies including solution tools and reporting systems for preventing patient falls have been developed and implemented in the U.S. However, the current strategies d...

Formalizing Evidence Type Definitions for Drug-Drug Interaction Studies to Improve Evidence Base Curation.

Studies in health technology and informatics
In this research we aim to demonstrate that an ontology-based system can categorize potential drug-drug interaction (PDDI) evidence items into complex types based on a small set of simple questions. Such a method could increase the transparency and r...

Design of Knowledge Bases for Plant Gene Regulatory Networks.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Developing a knowledge base that contains all the information necessary for the researcher studying gene regulation in a particular organism can be accomplished in four stages. This begins with defining the data scope. We describe here the necessary ...

Logical Reasoning (Inferencing) on MicroRNA Data.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Logical reasoning played an important role in artificial intelligence. Applying logical reasoning on microRNA data brings intelligence into data analysis. Here, we provide basic introduction about logic (especially propositional logic) and automated ...

Arden Syntax MLM Building Blocks for Microbiological Concepts and Their Application in Infection Surveillance.

Studies in health technology and informatics
BACKGROUND: The diagnosis - and hence definitions - of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) rely on microbiological laboratory test results in specific constellations.

Decision Support Systems in Cardiology: A Systematic Review.

Studies in health technology and informatics
The aim of this work was to identify the most common approaches used in the intelligent decision support systems employed in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases and identify accuracy of these systems. Forty-one relevant publications were include...

Architecture and Initial Development of a Digital Library Platform for Computable Knowledge Objects for Health.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Throughout the world, biomedical knowledge is routinely generated and shared through primary and secondary scientific publications. However, there is too much latency between publication of knowledge and its routine use in practice. To address this l...

Preparing Interfaith Leaders: Knowledge Base and Skill Set for Interfaith Leaders.

New directions for student leadership
This chapter gives an overview of the vision, knowledge base, and skill set of interfaith leadership.

The Network Library: a framework to rapidly integrate network biology resources.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Much of the biological knowledge accumulated over the last decades is stored in different databases governed by various organizations and institutes. Integrating and connecting these vast knowledge repositories is an extremely useful meth...
