Summary:"A growing number of ontologies are being built and used for annotating data in biomedical research. Thanks to the tremendous amount of data being generated, ontologies are now being used in numerous ways, including connecting different databases, refining search capabilities, interpreting experimental/clinical data, and inferring knowledge. This cutting-edge resource introduces you to latest developments in bio-ontologies and covers a wide range of critical topics."--BOOK JACKET.
Description
Summary:An ontology is a set of vocabulary terms with explicitly stated meanings and relations with other terms. This resource introduces researchers to the developments in bio-ontologies. It provides the theoretical foundations and examples of ontologies, as well as applications of ontologies in biomedicine, from molecular levels to clinical levels.
