Text Mining in biological research literature (BioMinT)

2003/01/01

Text Mining in biological research literature (BioMinT)I was involved in the BioMinT EU-funded research project (2003-2005), which was concerned with text mining in biological research literature and online databases. I was directly responsible for:

  • Implementation of a parser for fourteen online databases, transitive closure on the link graph, output as name pairs (synonyms) - 12 million pairs in all
  • Research and development in biological species recognition, named entity recognition, ranking and filtering systems.
  • Evaluation and validation of the system.
  • Basic research on redundancy recognition (sentence entailment)
