Workflows

Explain concept scores (7)

• Download

Purpose of workflow: This workflow takes two concept ids as input and returns the top ranking "B" concepts according to Swanson's ABC model of discovery, where the relationships AB and BC are known and reported in the literature, and the implicit relationship AC is a putative new discovery. It might also be the case that AC is already known. In that case AC does not represent a new discovery but will still be returned (see workflow example values). The B concepts are returned sorted on the pe...

Find co-occurring documents (6)

• Download

Purpose: This workflow search an indexed literature database for documents mentioning both of the input concepts. Author comments: Currently, PubMed is the underlying data source.

Match gene lists based on information in l... (7)

• Download

[THIS WORKFLOW IS IN BETA STAGE] This workflow computes the match between two lists of Entrez Gene Identifiers by means of concept profile matching (Jelier et al., van Haagen et al.). The result of this is a list of concepts ordered by their matching score (the length of the list set by maxMatchNr). Of this list the summed scores are explained by computing the concepts that contribute most to the combination of the matching genes. Example to explain (by analogy): When a group of informatic...

Pathway and Gene to Pubmed (2)

• Download

This workflow takes in a list of gene names and KEGG pathway descriptions, and searches the PubMed database for corresponding articles. Any matches to the genes are then retrieved (abstracts only). These abstracts are then used to calculate a cosine vector space between two sets of corpora (gene and phenotype, or pathway and phenotype). The workflow counts the number of articles in the pubmed database in which each term occurs, and identifies the total number of articles in the entire PubMe...

Remove Non-ASCII (1)

• Download

THis workflow removes any non-ascii characters from a segment of text. Any characters that are found are removed. Letters either side f the non-ASCII are concatenated - this may cause the loss of word meaning

Rank Phenotype Terms (1)

• Download

This workflow counts the number of articles in the pubmed database in which each term occurs, and identifies the total number of articles in the entire PubMed database. It also identified the total number of articles within pubmed so that a term enrichment score may be calculated. The workflow also takes in a document containing abstracts that are related to a particular phenotype. Scientiifc terms are then extracted from this text and given a weighting according to the number of terms that ...
