HuPSON: the human physiology simulation ontology
BACKGROUND Large biomedical simulation initiatives, such as the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH), are substantially dependent on controlled vocabularies to facilitate the exchange of information, of data and of models. Hindering these initiatives is a lack of a comprehensive ontology that covers the essential concepts of the simulation domain. RESULTS We propose a first version of a newly co...
متن کاملOntology Based Design for Integrative Simulation of Human Physiology
Mathematical modeling of physiological processes of human body has been studied in all levels from cell up to organs and organ systems. Although the initial idea for working on individual models of human physiology was to have a better understanding of the whole mechanism, not enough integrative approaches have been developed yet. To build an integrative framework for physiological processes, t...
متن کاملOntology-Based Representation of Simulation Models of Physiology
Dynamic simulation models of physiology are often represented as a set of mathematical equations. Such models are very useful for studying and understanding the dynamic behavior of physiological variables. However, the sheer number of equations and variables can make these models unwieldy, difficult to under-stand, and challenging to maintain. We describe a symbolic, ontologically-guided method...
متن کامل?Logic and Formal Ontology: Is the Final Formal Ontology Possible
Musa Akrami AbstractMany philosophers and logicians have contemplated the relationship between ontology and logic. The author of this paper, working within a Bolzanoan-Husserlian tradition of studying both ontology and logic, considers ontology as the science of the most general features of beings and the most general relations among them. He considers logic as the science concernin...
متن کاملOntology-Based Task Simulation
Information services assist people in their decision-making during the performance of certain tasks. In order to determine if a data source, which commits to a given ontology, can be employed for a service, the service provider needs to evaluate its usability and utility for the decision-making process. We propose to do this by simulating with the ontologies the tasks to be supported by the ser...
