BEReX: Biomedical Entity-Relationship eXplorer

BEReX: Biomedical Entity-Relationship eXplorer

SUMMARY Biomedical Entity-Relationship eXplorer (BEReX) is a new biomedical knowledge integration, search and exploration tool. BEReX integrates eight popular databases (STRING, DrugBank, KEGG, PhamGKB, BioGRID, GO, HPRD and MSigDB) and delineates an integrated network by combining the information available from these databases. Users search the integrated network by entering key words, and BER...

Biomedical Named Entity Recognition System

We propose a machine learning approach, using a Maximum Entropy (ME) model to construct a Named Entity Recognition (NER) classifier to retrieve biomedical names from texts. In experiments, we utilize a blend of various linguistic features incorporated into the ME model to assign class labels and location within an entity sequence, and a postprocessing strategy for corrections to sequences of ta...

Entity linking for biomedical literature

BACKGROUND The Entity Linking (EL) task links entity mentions from an unstructured document to entities in a knowledge base. Although this problem is well-studied in news and social media, this problem has not received much attention in the life science domain. One outcome of tackling the EL problem in the life sciences domain is to enable scientists to build computational models of biological ...

OBO Explorer: an editor for open biomedical ontologies in OWL

MOTIVATION To clarify the semantics, and take advantage of tools and algorithms developed for the Semantic Web, a mapping from the Open Biomedical Ontologies (OBO) format to the Web Ontology Language (OWL) has been established. We present an ontology editor that allows end users to work directly with this OWL representation of OBO format ontologies. AVAILABILITY http://www.aiai.ed.ac.uk/proje...
