Biomedical Ontologies: Toward Scientific Debate
SummaryObjectives: Biomedical ontologies have been very successful in structuring knowl edge for many different applications, receiving widespread praise for their utility and potential. Yet, the role of computational ontologies in scientific research, as opposed to knowledge management applications, has not been extensively discussed.

Biomedical ontologies: a functional perspective [PDF]
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 ...

Matching biomedical ontologies through compact differential evolution algorithm
Although biomedical ontologies have been widely used in the life science domain, the heterogeneous problem among biomedical ontologies hampers their inter-operability.

An Effective Method to Measure Disease Similarity Using Gene and Phenotype Associations
Motivation: In order to create controlled vocabularies for shared use in different biomedical domains, a large number of biomedical ontologies such as Disease Ontology (DO) and Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO), etc., are created in the bioinformatics ...

Putting Biomedical Ontologies to Work [PDF]
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
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.

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

A formal theory for spatial representation and reasoning in biomedical ontologies [PDF]
Objective: The objective of this paper is to demonstrate how a formal spatial theory can be used as an important tool for disambiguating the spatial information embodied in biomedical ontologies and for enhancing their automatic reasoning capabilities ...
