MOTIVATION: Whole-exome sequencing (WES) is now being used in clinical practice for the diagnosis of the causal genes of Mendelian diseases. In order to make the diagnosis, however, the clinical phenotypes [e.g. Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms] ...
The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is a standardized set of phenotypic terms that are organized in a hierarchical fashion. It is a widely used resource for capturing human disease phenotypes for computational analysis to support differential diagnost...
Modeling discrete phenotypic traits for either ancestral character state reconstruction or morphology-based phylogenetic inference suffers from ambiguities of character coding, homology assessment, dependencies, and selection of adequate models. Thes...
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) associate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to complex phenotypes. Most human SNPs fall in non-coding regions and are likely regulatory SNPs, but linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks make it difficult to dist...
We present Doc2Hpo, an interactive web application that enables interactive and efficient phenotype concept curation from clinical text with automated concept normalization using the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO). Users can edit the HPO concepts aut...
MOTIVATION: Ontologies are widely used in biology for data annotation, integration and analysis. In addition to formally structured axioms, ontologies contain meta-data in the form of annotation axioms which provide valuable pieces of information tha...
BACKGROUND: Tracking and predicting the growth performance of plants in different environments is critical for predicting the impact of global climate change. Automated approaches for image capture and analysis have allowed for substantial increases ...
