Presentation Transcript

  1. A simple entry point to ontology resources ontocat.sf.net

  2. To uniformly query OLS BioPortal OWL http://ontocat.sourceforge.net/

  3. Why ontologies are difficult to use? • Connecting to different public repositories • Custom ontologies and views • Versioning and identfier issues • Maintenance to keep up with changing application programming interfaces (BioPortal API)

  4. Motivation • Uniform interface to BioPortal, OLS, local files • Java, REST, JavaScript components • Reuse and integration for ontology applications

  5. Implementation • Java6 • Open source (LGPLv3) • Common OntologyService interface on top of BioPortal, OLS, and OWL API • Added value: • Easy access to additional annotations: symptoms, definitions • Local caching and ranking of ontology sources • Support for Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) properties

  6. Applications • Updating external references in ontologies via BioPortal • Experimental Factor Ontology • Adding ontology terms to annotations in a database • Zooma

  7. Acknowledgments Tomasz Adamusiak K Joeri van derVelde NiranAbeygunawardena DespoinaAntonakaki Helen Parkinson Morris A. Swertz
