Anatomy Ontologies for Bioinformatics: Principles and Practice (Computational Biology)
Anatomy Ontologies for Bioinformatics: Principles and Practice (Computational Biology)
By Albert Burger, Duncan Davidson, Richard Baldock
Publisher: Springer
Number Of Pages: 356
Publication Date: 2007-12-06
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1846288843
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781846288845
Binding: Hardcover
Bioinformatics as a discipline has come of age, and there are now
numerous databases and tools that are widely used by researchers in the
biomedical field. However, successful development of future
bioinformatics applications will depend on an appropriately formalised
representation of domain knowledge.
This book provides a timely and first-of-its-kind collection of
contributed chapters on anatomy ontologies. It is interdisciplinary in
its approach, bringing together relevant expertise from computing and
biomedical studies, and covering both theoretical and applied aspects,
with an emphasis on newer work relevant to the emerging Semantic Web.
Topics and Features:
Provides a comprehensive discussion of the foundations of anatomical
ontologies and the state of the art in existing computational tools and
applications
Considers a number of fundamental modelling principles
Includes chapters about research on algorithms to systematically
align anatomy ontologies and to mine data in the literature, using
anatomy terms
Explains recent efforts to develop a common anatomy reference ontology
Discusses anatomy in the context of spatio-temporal biomedical atlases
Describes systems and tools for linking anatomy ontologies with each
other and with other on-line resources, such as the biomedical
literature
Highlights the challenges of dealing with anatomy-based information on the Semantic Web
Although primarily written for readers who will be involved in
developing the next generation of IT applications in the areas of life
sciences, biomedical sciences and health care, this unique volume will
be of interest to anyone who will further develop anatomy ontologies,
who will use them, and who will be involved in the actual development
of relevant (semantic) web applications.
