Information-theoretic evaluation of predicted ontological annotations
MOTIVATION The development of effective methods for the prediction of ontological annotations is an important goal in computational biology, with protein function prediction and disease gene prioritization gaining wide recognition. Although various algorithms have been proposed for these tasks, evaluating their performance is difficult owing to problems caused both by the structure of biomedica...
متن کاملOntological interpretation of biomedical database annotations
Motivation: In general, the meaning of biological database records is not sufficiently specified from an ontological point of view. We explore the options for an ontology-based integration and interpretation of database content of individuals, defined classes, dispositions and a combination of these. Results: Four interpretation models are created, interpreting annotations in database records a...
متن کاملAgroLD Indexing Tools with Ontological Annotations
The Agronomic Linked Data project (AgroLD) is a Semantic Web knowledge base designed to integrate data from various publicly available plant centric data sources. The aim of AgroLD project is to provide a portal for bioinformaticians and domain experts to exploit the homogenized data towards enabling to bridge the knowledge. Here we present new tools that enable ”full text search” functionaliti...
متن کاملInformation-Theoretic Exploration and Evaluation of Models
No information-theoretic quantity, such as entropy or Kullback-Leibler divergence, is meaningful without first assuming a probabilistic model. In Bayesian statistics, the model itself is uncertain, so the resulting information-theoretic quantities should also be treated as uncertain. Information theory provides a language for asking meaningful decision-theoretic questions about blackbox probabi...
متن کاملMutual information applied to coreference: an information-theoretic evaluation measure
The accurate communication of references to entities is viewed here from an information-theoretic perspective. The successful transmission of references amounts to an similar distribution of coreferent expressions for the sender and for the receiver of a discourse, which is an alternative view with regard to equivalence classes for the coreference relation. Mutual information can be used to def...
