Chapter and Conference Paper
Data citation provides a valuable method for rewarding citizen scientists by formally acknowledging the contributions that they make to valuable scientific datasets. The difficulty is that citizen science data...
Chapter and Conference Paper
This paper describes the 3D Water Chemistry Atlas - an open source, Web-based system that enables the three-dimensional (3D) sub-surface visualization of ground water monitoring data, overlaid on the local geo...
Article
Lately, ontologies have become a fundamental building block in the process of formalising and storing complex biomedical information. With the currently existing wealth of formalised knowledge, the ability to ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Data skewness is a challenge encountered, in particular, when applying supervised machine learning approaches in various domains, such as in healthcare and biomedical information engineering. Evidence Based Me...
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...
Article
Over the course of the last few years there has been a significant amount of research performed on ontology-based formalization of phenotype descriptions. In order to fully capture the intrinsic value and know...
Article
Skeletal dysplasias are a rare and heterogeneous group of genetic disorders affecting skeletal development. Patients with skeletal dysplasias suffer from many complex medical issues including degenerative join...
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 aim of the 3D Semantic Annotation (3DSA) system is to deliver a Web-based semantic tagging and annotation service for 3D cultural heritage objects - that enables users to attach semantic tags/annotations t...
Chapter
The chapter presents two case studies of pedagogical innovation in and across school classrooms; the first titled Engaging Pedagogy, speculated about a ‘fresh technology equation’ conceptualised to promote hig...
Chapter and Conference Paper
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
Phenomics, the systematic study of phenotypes, is an emerging field of research in biology. It complements genomics, the study of genotypes, and is becoming an increasingly critical tool to understand phenomen...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Increasing numbers of museums and cultural institutions are using 3D laser scanning techniques to preserve cultural artefacts as 3D digital models, that are then accessible to curators, scholars and the genera...
