BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: There is a huge amount of rare diseases, many of which have associated important disabilities. It is paramount to know in advance the evolution of the disease in order to limit and prevent the appearance of disabilities and ...
The advance of scene understanding methods based on machine learning relies on the availability of large ground truth datasets, which are essential for their training and evaluation. Construction of such datasets with imagery from real sensor data ho...
Chemical-disease relation (CDR) extraction is significantly important to various areas of biomedical research and health care. Nowadays, many large-scale biomedical knowledge bases (KBs) containing triples about entity pairs and their relations have ...
BACKGROUND: Bilingual lexicon induction (BLI) is an important task in the biomedical domain as translation resources are usually available for general language usage, but are often lacking in domain-specific settings. In this article we consider BLI ...

BACKGROUND: The use of knowledge models facilitates information retrieval, knowledge base development, and therefore supports new knowledge discovery that ultimately enables decision support applications. Most existing works have employed machine lea...
Psychological constructs, such as emotions, thoughts, and attitudes are often measured by asking individuals to reply to questions using closed-ended numerical rating scales. However, when asking people about their state of mind in a natural context ...

To describe the cellular functions of proteins and genes, a potential dynamic vocabulary is Gene Ontology (GO), which comprises of three sub-ontologies namely, Biological-process, Cellular-component, and Molecular-function. It has several application...
Text mining of scientific libraries and social media has already proven itself as a reliable tool for drug repurposing and hypothesis generation. The task of mapping a disease mention to a concept in a controlled vocabulary, typically to the standard...
As of April 2018, UniProtKB has collected more than 115 million protein sequences. Less than 0.15% of these proteins, however, have been associated with experimental GO annotations. As such, the use of automatic protein function prediction (AFP) to r...
