Querying phenotype-genotype associations across multiple knowledge bases using Semantic Web technologies
2013
13th IEEE International Conference on BioInformatics and BioEngineering
Biomedical and genomic data are inherently heterogeneous and their recent proliferation over the Web has demanded innovative querying methods to help domain experts in their clinical and research studies ...
In this paper we present the use of Semantic Web technologies in querying diverse phenotype-genotype associations for supporting personalized medicine and potentially helping to discover new associations ...

Archetype-based semantic mediation: Incremental provisioning of data services
2010
2010 IEEE 23rd International Symposium on Computer-Based Medical Systems (CBMS)
Modern organizations need to exploit the information stored in heterogeneous and interrelated data sources, but often have no means to integrate them in a principled fashion. ...
In this paper we propose a novel application of semantic and mediation technologies, which leads to an incremental and on-demand definition of data mediation services. ...
