This tutorial is intended for biologists and computational biologists interested in adding text mining tools to their bioinformatics toolbox. As an illustrative example, the tutorial examines the relationship between progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and antibodies. Recent cases of PML have been associated to the administration of some monoclonal antibodies such as efalizumab [1]...

In this poster we present a set of biomedical text mining web services which can be used to provide remote access to the annotation results of an advanced text mining pipeline. The pipeline is part of a system which has been tested several times in community organized text mining competitions, often achieving top-ranked results. Posted at the Zurich Open Repository and Archive, University of Zu...

My general research interest is text mining. As more and more documents are digitized or born digital, text mining techniques are in need for automatically exploring or helping humans to explore text collections in all kinds of sizes, formats, subjects and styles. The earliest cited work of text mining might be Ronen Feldman’s KDT paper [36] in KDD-95. Feldman’s work [36, 37] focused on buildin...
