Measuring semantic similarity between Gene Ontology terms
Many bioinformatics applications would benefit from comparing proteins based on their biological role rather than their sequence. This manuscript adds two new contributions. First, a study of the correlation between Gene Ontology (GO) terms and family similarity demonstrates that protein families constitute an appropriate baseline for validating GO similarity. Secondly, we introduce GraSM, a no...
متن کاملSemantic Similarity in Biomedical Ontologies
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 similarity in meaning of their annotations. The appl...
متن کاملFrom Ontology to Semantic Similarity: Calculation of Ontology-Based Semantic Similarity
Advances in high-throughput experimental techniques in the past decade have enabled the explosive increase of omics data, while effective organization, interpretation, and exchange of these data require standard and controlled vocabularies in the domain of biological and biomedical studies. Ontologies, as abstract description systems for domain-specific knowledge composition, hence receive more...
متن کاملA framework for unifying ontology-based semantic similarity measures: A study in the biomedical domain
Ontologies are widely adopted in the biomedical domain to characterize various resources (e.g. diseases, drugs, scientific publications) with non-ambiguous meanings. By exploiting the structured knowledge that ontologies provide, a plethora of ad hoc and domain-specific semantic similarity measures have been defined over the last years. Nevertheless, some critical questions remain: which measur...
متن کاملImproving Semantic Similarity for Pairs of Short Biomedical Texts with Concept Definitions and Ontology Structure
Finding semantic similarity between short biomedical texts, such as article abstracts or experiment descriptions, may provide important information for health researchers. This paper presents a method for calculating text similarity in the biomedical context. The method implements a pairwise concept semantic similarity measure that uses concept definitions and ontology structure. The respective...
