Interspecies Gene Name Extrapolation—A New Approach

CYP141 gene: A New approach for Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Identification

In summary, in order to control tuberculosis, we require a rapid diagnosis of TB patients, who act as the source of disease; and if remain untreated, these patients can spread the disease throughout the population. Therefore, we need to introduce the new approach for quick and accurate identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and CYP141 gene is a new approach for rapid and accura...

Future Compliance: Envisioning a New, Smart Approach to Name Screening

We believe it is timely to re-examine the current industry baseline for the practice of compliance name screening from the bottom up. Emergent technologies such as artificial intelligence ("AI"), deep learning, and blockchain, among others, should be carefully assessed and applied to the screening function to make it significantly more effective, comprehensive, and accurate. The application of ...

A New Statistical Approach to Personal Name Extraction

We propose a new statistical approach to extracting personal names from a corpus. One of the key points of our approach is that it can both automatically learn the characteristics of personal names from a large training corpus and make good use of human empirical knowledge (e.g., Context Free Grammar). Furthermore, our approach also assigns confidence measures to the extracted personal names, c...

What's in a gene name? Automated refinement of gene name dictionaries

Many approaches for named entity recognition rely on dictionaries gathered from curated databases (such as Entrez Gene for gene names.) Strategies for matching entries in a dictionary against arbitrary text use either inexact string matching that allows for known deviations, dictionaries enriched according to some observed rules, or a combination of both. Such refined dictionaries cover potenti...
