Complex overlapping concepts: An effective auditing methodology for families of similarly structured BioPortal ontologies.

Journal of biomedical informatics
In previous research, we have demonstrated for a number of ontologies that structurally complex concepts (for different definitions of "complex") in an ontology are more likely to exhibit errors than other concepts. Thus, such complex concepts often ...

Exploiting semantic patterns over biomedical knowledge graphs for predicting treatment and causative relations.

Journal of biomedical informatics
BACKGROUND: Identifying new potential treatment options for medical conditions that cause human disease burden is a central task of biomedical research. Since all candidate drugs cannot be tested with animal and clinical trials, in vitro approaches a...

Exploiting Unlabeled Texts with Clustering-based Instance Selection for Medical Relation Classification.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Classifying relations between pairs of medical concepts in clinical texts is a crucial task to acquire empirical evidence relevant to patient care. Due to limited labeled data and extremely unbalanced class distributions, medical relation classificat...

Detecting Evidence of Intra-abdominal Surgical Site Infections from Radiology Reports Using Natural Language Processing.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Free-text reports in electronic health records (EHRs) contain medically significant information - signs, symptoms, findings, diagnoses - recorded by clinicians during patient encounters. These reports contain rich clinical information which can be le...

Matching biomedical ontologies based on formal concept analysis.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: The goal of ontology matching is to identify correspondences between entities from different yet overlapping ontologies so as to facilitate semantic integration, reuse and interoperability. As a well developed mathematical model for analy...

Improving the interoperability of biomedical ontologies with compound alignments.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Ontologies are commonly used to annotate and help process life sciences data. Although their original goal is to facilitate integration and interoperability among heterogeneous data sources, when these sources are annotated with distinct ...

The bacterial interlocked process ONtology (BiPON): a systemic multi-scale unified representation of biological processes in prokaryotes.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: High-throughput technologies produce huge amounts of heterogeneous biological data at all cellular levels. Structuring these data together with biological knowledge is a critical issue in biology and requires integrative tools and methods...

Entity recognition in the biomedical domain using a hybrid approach.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: This article describes a high-recall, high-precision approach for the extraction of biomedical entities from scientific articles.

Towards refactoring the Molecular Function Ontology with a UML profile for function modeling.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Gene Ontology (GO) is the largest resource for cataloging gene products. This resource grows steadily and, naturally, this growth raises issues regarding the structure of the ontology. Moreover, modeling and refactoring large ontologies s...

Knowledge Representation and Management, It's Time to Integrate!

Yearbook of medical informatics
To select, present, and summarize the best papers published in 2016 in the field of Knowledge Representation and Management (KRM). A comprehensive and standardized review of the medical informatics literature was performed based on a PubMed query. ...
