Text Mining in biological research literature (BioMinT)
2003/01/01
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)
