In this paper we report on our on-going efforts in building SKELETOME – a community-driven knowledge curation platform for the skeletal dysplasia domain. SKELETOME introduces an ontology-driven knowledge engin...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Semantic annotation of patient data in the skeletal dysplasia domain (e.g., clinical summaries) is a challenging process due to the structural and lexical differences existing between the terms used to describ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Biomedical ontologies have become a mainstream topic in medical research. They represent important sources of evolved knowledge that may be automatically integrated in decision support methods. Grounding clini...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The 3D Semantic Annotation (3DSA) system expedites the classification of 3D digital surrogates from the cultural heritage domain, by leveraging crowd-sourced semantic annotations. More specifically, the 3DSA s...
