Different Schemes

Our Goal

• Given different data sources
• And we have different queries (Q1,Q2,..Qk)
  over (S1,S2..Sk)
• Find answers to these questions (A1,A2,..Ak)

Problem Definition

• Project
• Integration of Two Separate Biology Databases to
  process queries that require the knowledge of
  both.
• 1. Neuron Image Database(NCMIR)
• The National Center for Microscopy and Imaging
  Research (NCMIR) is a federally funded research
  facility dedicated to advancing three-dimensional
  microscopy and imaging of biological materials.
  (http//www-ncmir.ucsd.edu)
• 2. Neuron Receptor Database (SenseLab)
• The SenseLab Project is a 10-year
  effort by an international network of researchers
  to develop a comprehensive approach to building
  integrated, multidisciplinary models of neurons
  and neural systems, using the olfactory pathway
  as a model. (http//senselab.med.yale.edu/senselab

Does hippocampus CA1 pyramidal cell has glutamate
receptor and what the effect on the neuron shape
caused by the Ca ion entered through the
glutamate receptor during LTP?
Example
Query/Result
SYSTEM THAT CAN PROCESS THE QUERY FROM MULTIPLE
COMPLEX WORLD DATABASES
Deliverables answer to the Users
Queries. Example for queries above, the answer
is Yes / Neuron Image-Ids before and after LTP

Project Plan

• Apply Model-based Mediation with Domain Map to to
  solve the problem
• Adapt available software to realize some of the
  subsystems, e.g., XML-Wrapper
• Try to implement a CM-Wrapper
• Use RDF or XML Schema with F-logic as a GCM
• Use expert knowledge to construct the domain map
• Use Description Logic to formalize the domain map
• Deliverables
• A detailed written project report that describes
  the design and the implementation of the
  solution to the problem
• Presentation of the design and the implementation
