چکیده
This paper presents the results of the University at Buffalo in the 2006 ImageCLEFmed task. Our approach for this task combines Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) and text retrieval to improve retrieval of medical images. Our results are comparable to other approaches presented in the task. Our results show that text retrieval performs well across the three different types of topics (visual, visual-semantic and semantic) and that the combination of CBIR and text retrieval yields moderate improvements.

IPAL Knowledge-based Medical Image Retrieval in ImageCLEFmed 2006
This paper presents the contribution of IPAL group on the CLEF 2006 medical retrieval task (i.e. ImageCLEFmed). The main idea of our group is to incorporate medical knowledge in the retrieval system within a multimodal fusion framework. For text, this knowledge is in the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) sources. For images, this knowledge is in semantic features that are learned from exam...
متن کاملUbiquitin tug-O-war
U biquitin (Ub) conjugation regulates numerous cellular processes, yet past biochemistry experiments suggested that although cells have a lot of Ub, little of it is free. On page 19, Dantuma et al. show that recruiting Ub to one site pulls it off another and, thus, Ub may link otherwise distinct processes, such as protein degradation and gene transcription. GFP-Ub was evenly distributed in the ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Automatically Assigned MeSH Terms for Retrieval of Medical Images
This paper presents the results of the State University of New York at Buffalo (UB) team in collaboration with the National Library of Medicine (NLM) in the 2007 ImageCLEFmed task. We use a system that combines visual features (using a CBIR System) and text retrieval. We used the Medical Text Indexer (MTI) developed by NLM to automatically assign MeSH terms and UMLS concepts to the English free...
متن کاملOverview of the ImageCLEFmed 2006 Medical Retrieval and Medical Annotation Tasks
This paper describes the medical image retrieval and annotation tasks of ImageCLEF 2006. Both tasks are described with respect to goals, databases, topics, results, and techniques. The ImageCLEFmed retrieval task had 12 participating groups (100 runs). Most runs were automatic, with only a few manual or interactive. Purely textual runs were in the majority compared to purely visual runs but mos...
متن کاملCrystal Structure of the Ubiquitin Binding Domains of Rabex-5 Reveals Two Modes of Interaction with Ubiquitin
The interaction between ubiquitinated proteins and intracellular proteins harboring ubiquitin binding domains (UBDs) is critical to a multitude of cellular processes. Here, we report that Rabex-5, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Rab5, binds to Ub through two independent UBDs. These UBDs determine a number of properties of Rabex-5, including its coupled monoubiquitination and interactio...
