  1. Over the 15 years, the Bio-Ontologies SIG at ISMB has provided a forum for discussion of the latest and most innovative research in the bio-ontologies development, its applications to biomedicine and more gene...

    Authors: Larisa N Soldatova, Susanna-Assunta Sansone, Michel Dumontier and Nigam H Shah
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2013 4(Suppl 1):I1
  2. A key activity for life scientists in this post “-omics” age involves searching for and integrating biological data from a multitude of independent databases. However, our ability to find relevant data is hamp...

    Authors: Alison Callahan, José Cruz-Toledo and Michel Dumontier
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2013 4(Suppl 1):S1
  3. As the number and size of biological knowledge resources for physiology grows, researchers need improved tools for searching and integrating knowledge and physiological models. Unfortunately, current resources...

    Authors: Daniel L. Cook, Maxwell L. Neal, Robert Hoehndorf, Georgios V. Gkoutos and John H. Gennari
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2013 4(Suppl 1):S2
  4. Document search on PubMed, the pre-eminent database for biomedical literature, relies on the annotation of its documents with relevant terms from the Medical Subject Headings ontology (MeSH) for improving reca...

    Authors: Daniel Eisinger, George Tsatsaronis, Markus Bundschus, Ulrich Wieneke and Michael Schroeder
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2013 4(Suppl 1):S3
  5. The Gene Ontology and its associated annotations are critical tools for interpreting lists of genes. Here, we introduce a method for evaluating the Gene Ontology annotations and structure based on the impact t...

    Authors: Erik L Clarke, Salvatore Loguercio, Benjamin M Good and Andrew I Su
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2013 4(Suppl 1):S4
  6. The World Wide Web has become a dissemination platform for scientific and non-scientific publications. However, most of the information remains locked up in discrete documents that are not always interconnecte...

    Authors: L Jael Garcia Castro, C McLaughlin and A Garcia
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2013 4(Suppl 1):S5
  7. Ontologies categorize entities, express relationships between them, and provide standardized definitions. Thus, they can be used to present and enforce the specific relationships between database components. T...

    Authors: Randi Vita, James A. Overton, Jason A. Greenbaum, Alessandro Sette and Bjoern Peters
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2013 4(Suppl 1):S6
  8. The theory of probability is widely used in biomedical research for data analysis and modelling. In previous work the probabilities of the research hypotheses have been recorded as experimental metadata. The o...

    Authors: Larisa N. Soldatova, Andrey Rzhetsky, Kurt De Grave and Ross D King
    Citation: Journal of Biomedical Semantics 2013 4(Suppl 1):S7
  9. As new biomedical technologies are developed, the amount of publically available biomedical data continues to increase. To help manage these vast and disparate data sources, researchers have turned to the Sema...
