Title: BIRN%20ONTOLOGIES%20Session


1
BIRN ONTOLOGIES Session
  • Jeffrey Grethe
  • Amarnath Gupta
  • Bertram Ludäscher
  • Maryann E. Martone

2
Overview
  • First half
  • Ontologies (brief not a total recall)
    (Bertram)
  • UMLS Bonfire extensions (Jeff)
  • Disease maps (Maryann, Amarnath)
  • Ontology-enhanced tools (Maryann)
  • Second half
  • Discussion on policy issues, BIRN ontology
    curation etc

3
Kinds of Ontologies (simplified cheat sheet)
  • Controlled Vocabularies
  • agreed upon range of values (enumeration type)
  • e.g. standard names for materials, diseases,
  • Simple Taxonomies, Classification hierarchies
    (isa)
  • controlled concept vocabulary
  • subconcept (specialization) relationship
  • e.g. biological taxonomies
  • Graph-like Ontologies
  • isa, has-a, and other relationships
  • (contained_in, causes, activates, ),
  • the latter usually w/o formalized semantics (but
    agreed upon)
  • e.g. semantic nets, RDF,
  • Full-fledged Ontologies
  • Usually logic-based ontologies relationships
    (including isa) are logic consequences of formal
    concept definitions ? (partially) defined
    semantics
  • You knew this already e.g. 5. Conceptual Models
  • DSM-IV(Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of
    Mental Disorders )

Uses of Ontologies in Data Integration
  • Smart (conceptual-level) data discovery,
    browsing, querying
  • looking for C, finding D (which is C-related)
  • terminological and semantic glue between
    different data worlds
  • Conceptual / Semantic Modeling of a domain
  • for terminologies domain maps (in description
    logic)
  • for processes process maps, disease maps
    (open issue)
  • Need to provide
  • Ontology exchange syntax
  • Ontology extensions mechanisms (? BONFIRE)
  • Inter-ontology mapping mechanisms (?yours vs.
    mine)
  • Data-to-ontology registration mechanisms (?data
    to concepts)

6
Generic Standards
  • RDF, RDFS
  • For graph-based ontologies (explicit statements)
  • OWL (Web Ontology Language)
  • Three levels OWL Lite, OWL DL, OWL Full
  • Some Features
  • Ontology O2 uses (refers to) O1 (over the web!)
  • ? formalism to exchange, extended, and map
    between ontologies

Parent ? Person??offspring.Person
7
Generic Tools
  • Ontology authoring Protégé-2000 ontology tool
    (Stanford)
  • OWL Plug-In (evolving)
  • Developers corner
  • Jena-2 Semantic Web Framework (HP), for dealing
    with OWL ontologies
  • Logic programming extensions (SWI)

8
Example Ontology-enhanced Map Integration (OMI)
  • Upload ontologies
  • O1, O2, (O2, O3 use O1,)
  • Upload ontology mapping
  • Om Oa ? Ob
  • Register data sets
  • D1, D2, to ontology Oa
  • Query data sets through Ob interface!

9
  • UMLS
  • BONFIRE (Community Ontology Building)

10
What is UMLS?
  • UMLS is a long-term research project began on
    1986 by the National Library of Medicine (NLM)
  • UMLS is a collection of knowledge sources
    designed to facilitate the retrieval and
    integration of information from multiple
    machine-readable biomedical information sources

11
Knowledge Resources
  • Metathesaurus
  • The Metathesaurus is organized by concept or
    meaning, it provides a uniform, integrated
    distribution format from about 60 biomedical
    vocabularies and classifications and links many
    different names for the same concepts
  • The 2000 edition of the Metathesaurus includes
    more than 730,000 concepts and 1.5 million
    concept names from over 50 different biomedical
    vocabularies, some in multiple languages

12
Knowledge Resources
  • Semantic Network
  • Semantic Network contains information about the
    types or categories (e.g., "Disease or Syndrome,"
    "Virus") to which all concepts have been assigned
    and the permissible relationships among these
    types (e.g., "Virus" causes "Disease or
    Syndrome")
  • The semantic types are the nodes in the Network,
    and the relationships between them are the
    links.It has 132 semantic types, 53 links between
    the semantic types.

13
Knowledge Resources
  • Semantic Network
  • Semantic types organisms, anatomical structures,
    biologic function, chemicals, events, physical
    objects, and concepts or ideas etc.
  • Relations isa, physically related to,'
    spatially related to,' temporally related to,'
    functionally related to,' and conceptually
    related to etc.

14
Hierarchical relations types
15
Associative (non-isa) Relationships
16
Knowledge Resources
  • Information Sources Map
  • The information sources are varied and include
    bibliographic databases, diagnostic expert
    systems, and factual databases
  • The Information Sources Map or directory contains
    both human-readable and machine-"processable"
    information about the scope, location,
    vocabulary, syntax rules, and access conditions
    of biomedical databases of all kinds

18
BONFIRE
  • BONFIRE will allow BIRN users to accommodate
    concepts not present in the available pre-defined
    source ontologies
  • Whenever possible, users should employ the
    relationship terms provided within the UMLS or
    other source ontologies provided by BIRN
  • Once new terms are defined, when will they will
    become part of the BIRN Ontology (BONFIRE)?
  • after appropriate curation?

19
Ontology Refinement
20
An Example Data Set
  • species rat (UMLS C003493)
  • region neostriatum (UMLS C0162512)
  • cell type medium spiny cell (No Concept
    Available)
  • structure spiny dendrite(No Concept Available)
  • segmented object dendritic spine (UMLS
    C0872341)
  • segmented object dendritic shaft (No Concept
    Available)

21
BONFIRE Example
  • For this data set, no ontology IDs exist for
    medium spiny cell, spiny dendrite or dendritic
    shaft.
  • medium spiny cell (BONFIRE BID006)
  • medium spiny cell is a neuron (UMLS
    C0027882)
  • medium spiny cell has location neostriatum
    (UMLS C0162512)
  • medium spiny cell is a neuron AND has
    property dendritic spine (UMLS C0872341)
  • spiny dendrite (BONFIRE BID007)
  • spiny dendrite is a dendrite (UMLS C0011305)
  • spiny dendrite contains dendritic spine (UMLS
    C0872341)
