چکیده

We present new methods to efficiently answer complex queries over biomedical ontologies and databases considering the relevant parts of these knowledge resources, and to generate shortest explanations to justify these answers. Both algorithms rely on the high-level representation and efficient solvers of Answer Set Programming. We apply these algorithms to find answers and explanations to some complex queries related to drug discovery, over PHARMGKB, DRUGBANK, BIOGRID, CTD and SIDER.

Generating Explanations for Complex Biomedical Queries

We present a computational method to generate explanations to answers of complex queries over biomedical ontologies and databases, using the high-level representation and efficient automated reasoners of Answer Set Programming. We show the applicability of our approach with some queries related to drug discovery over PHARMGKB, DRUGBANK, BIOGRID, CTD and SIDER.

Generating explanations for biomedical queries

We introduce novel mathematical models and algorithms to generate (shortest or k different) explanations for biomedical queries, using answer set programming. We implement these algorithms and integrate them in BIOQUERY-ASP. We illustrate the usefulness of these methods with some complex biomedical queries related to drug discovery, over the biomedical knowledge resources PHARMGKB, DRUGBANK, BI...

Querying Biomedical Ontologies in Natural Language using Answer Set

Recent advances in health and life sciences have led to generation of a large amount of data. To facilitate access to its desired parts, such a big mass of data has been represented in structured forms, like biomedical ontologies. On the other hand, representing ontologies in a formal language, constructing them independently from each other and storing them at different locations have brought ...

ارائه روشی پویا جهت پاسخ به پرس‌وجوهای پیوسته تجمّعی اقتضایی

Data Streams are infinite, fast, time-stamp data elements which are received explosively. Generally, these elements need to be processed in an online, real-time way. So, algorithms to process data streams and answer queries on these streams are mostly one-pass. The execution of such algorithms has some challenges such as memory limitation, scheduling, and accuracy of answers. They will be more ...
