Additional Gene Ontology structure for improved biological reasoning
MOTIVATION The Gene Ontology (GO) is a widely used terminology for gene product characterization in, for example, interpretation of biology underlying microarray experiments. The current GO defines term relationships within each of the independent subontologies: molecular function, biological process and cellular component. However, it is evident that there also exist biological relationships b...
متن کاملBiological profiling of gene groups utilizing Gene Ontology.
Increasingly used high throughput experimental techniques, like DNA or protein microarrays give as a result groups of interesting, e.g. differentially regulated genes which require further biological interpretation. With the systematic functional annotation provided by the Gene Ontology the information required to automate the interpretation task is now accessible. However, the determination of...
متن کاملReasoning Support for Ontology Design
The design of comprehensive ontologies is a serious challenge. Therefore, it is necessary to support the ontology designer by providing him with design methodologies, ontology editors, and automated reasoning tools that explicate the consequences of his design decisions. Currently, reasoning tools are largely limited to the reasoning services (i) computing the subsumption hierarchy of the class...
متن کاملClass Algebra for Ontology Reasoning
Class algebra provides a natural framework for sharing of ISA hierarchies between users that may be unaware of each other’s definitions. This permits data from relational databases, objectoriented databases, and tagged XML documents to be unioned into one distributed ontology, sharable by all users without the need for prior negotiation or the development of a “standard” ontology for each field...
متن کاملHybrid Reasoning for Ontology Classification
Ontology classification is an essential reasoning task for ontology based systems. Tableau and resolution are two dominant types of reasoning procedures for ontology reasoning. Complex ontologies are often built on more expressive description logics and are usually highly cyclic. When reasoning complex ontologies, the both approaches may have difficulties in terms of reasoning results and perfo...
