Transinsight (D)
Beyond keywords, Transinsight uses novel algorithms, state-of-the art natural language processing, and ontologies to provide better and faster search capabilities for complex queries not only in the life sciences. The goal of this development is the establishment of a semantic web for the life sciences. GoPubMed, the ontology-based literature search engine, is a first example of a knowledge-based semantic search engine to improve searching in sciences. GoPubMed paves the way for a migration from web to semantic web.
Project Collaboration
BioASQ
BioASQ will push towards improved biomedical semantic indexing and QA via ambitious, yet realistic challenge tasks. The challenge will run in two stages, designed to (a) adapt traditional semantic indexing and QA methods to the needs of biomedical experts, and (b) collect feedback and improve the experimental setting itself. A large computational infrastructure, already available to the consortium, will be used to evaluate competing systems. The required datasets and evaluation measures will be established before the challenge. Biomedical experts will participate in the consortium, both as partners and through a supporting network of third parties. Read more about BioASQ
