BAMS Neuroanatomical Ontology: Design and Implementation
We describe in this paper the structure and main features of a domain specific ontology for neuroscience, the BAMS Neuroanatomical Ontology. The ontology includes a complete set of concepts that describe the parts of the rat nervous system, a growing set of concepts that describe neuron populations identified in different brain regions, and relationships between concepts. The ontology is linked...
متن کاملCollating and Curating Neuroanatomical Nomenclatures: Principles and Use of the Brain Architecture Knowledge Management System (BAMS)
Terms used to describe nervous system parts and their interconnections are rife with synonyms, partial correspondences, and even homonyms, making effective scientific communication unnecessarily difficult. To address this problem a new Topological Relations schema for the Relations module of BAMS (Brain Architecture Knowledge Management System) was created. It includes a representation of the q...
متن کاملDesign and Implementation of Product Structure Ontology
Knowledge Management consists of processes to capture, share, and effectively use knowledge. Knowledge capture means the process of development and creation of the knowledge, and formalization is an example of direct knowledge capture. Knowledge formalization refers to knowledge representation that is concerned with how to formally think and represent the domain of discourse, and ontologies are...
متن کاملHealth Ontology Generator: Design And Implementation
This paper presents the design and implementation of a Health Ontology Generator (HOG) using a health database such as Microsoft Access or SQL Server. The development of the ontology generator involves building methods for creating and reading the ontology. This research performs both these tasks. In generating the ontology, database tables are treated as classes, fields as functional propertie...
متن کاملOntology-Based Visualization of Hierarchical Neuroanatomical Structures
This work presents a method for generating intuitive visualizations for high-level user queries to an hierarchical surface-based neuroanatomical atlas. We combine a spreading activation approach for computing focus and context in an ontology with a specific level-of-detail strategy for hierarchical structures. We demonstrate our method on an atlas of the bee brain.
