Putting Biomedical Ontologies to Work [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal for Biomedical Informatics, 2009
Summary Objectives: Biomedical ontologies exist to serve integration of clinical and experimental data, and it is critical to their success that they be put to widespread use in the annotation of data. How, then, can ontologies achieve the sort of user-friendliness, reliability, cost-effectiveness, and breadth of coverage that is necessary to

Context-based refinement of mappings in evolving life science ontologies

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Semantics, 2023
Background Biomedical computational systems benefit from ontologies and their associated mappings. Indeed, aligned ontologies in life sciences play a central role in several semantic-enabled tasks, especially in data exchange.

Semantic Similarity in Biomedical Ontologies

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2009
In recent years, ontologies have become a mainstream topic in biomedical research. When biological entities are described using a common schema, such as an ontology, they can be compared by means of their annotations. This type of comparison is called semantic similarity, since it assesses the degree of relatedness between two entities by the ...

Gene Ontology (GO) Annotation in Biomedical Literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper, we propose an approach for doing Gene Ontology (GO) annotation on biomedical texts. The GO is an effort to create a controlled terminology for labelling gene functions in a more precise.

Ontological modeling of the International Classification of Functioning, Disabilities and Health (ICF): Activities&Participation and Environmental Factors components

open access: yesBMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making, 2021
Background The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is a classification of health and health-related states developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) to provide a standard and unified language to be used as a ...

Cells in experimental life sciences - challenges and solution to the rapid evolution of knowledge

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2017
Cell cultures used in biomedical experiments come in the form of both sample biopsy primary cells, and maintainable immortalised cell lineages. The rise of bioinformatics and high-throughput technologies has led us to the requirement of ontology ...

Ontology-Based MEDLINE Document Classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
An increasing and overwhelming amount of biomedical information is available in the research literature mainly in the form of free-text. Biologists need tools that automate their information search and deal with the high volume and ambiguity of free-text.

Ontology-based document representation for biomedical information retrieval [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In the current era of fast sequencing of entire genomes, more data is becoming available for analysis. This data analysis, in turn, leads to an increasing amount of scientfic publications.

Debugging Mappings between Biomedical Ontologies: Preliminary Results from the NCBO BioPortal Mapping Repository [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The ability to provide semantic mappings between multiple large biomedical ontologies is considered as a very important, albeit labor-intensive and error-prone task.

Biomedical ontologies: a functional perspective [PDF]

open access: yesBriefings in Bioinformatics, 2007
The information explosion in biology makes it difficult for researchers to stay abreast of current biomedical knowledge and to make sense of the massive amounts of online information. Ontologies--specifications of the entities, their attributes and relationships among the entities in a domain of discourse--are increasingly enabling biomedical ...
