The book synthesizes research on the analysis of biomedical ontologies using formal concept analysis, including through auditing, curation, and enhancement. As the evolution of biomedical ontologies almost inevitably involves manual work, formal methods are a particularly useful tool for ontological engineering and practice, particularly in uncovering unexpected "bugs" and content materials. The book first introduces simple but formalized strategies for discovering undesired and incoherent patterns in ontologies before exploring the application of formal concept analysis for semantic completeness. The book then turns to formal concept analysis, a classical approach used in the mathematical t...
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Conceptual Structures, ICCS 2018, held in Edinburgh, UK, in June 2018. The 10 full papers, 2 short papers and 2 posters presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 21 submissions. They are organized in the following topical sections: graph- and concept-based inference; computer- human interaction and human cognition; and graph visualization.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Health Information Science, HIS 2020, which took place in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, during October 20-23, 2020. The 11 full papers and 6 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 62 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: mental health; medical record processing; medical information systems; medical diagnosis with machine learning; and health behavior and medication.

The 9 full papers, 5 short papers and 4 Posters are included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Complexity and Database Theory, Formal Concept Analysis: Theoretical Advances, Formal Concept Analysis: Applications, Modelling and Explanation, Semantic Web and Graphs, Posters.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Conceptual Structures, ICCS 2020, held in Bolzano, Italy, in September 2020.* The 10 full papers, 5 short papers and 1 poster paper presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. The proceedings also include two keynotes and two tutorials. The papers focus on the representation of and reasoning with conceptual structures in a variety of contexts. The topics of this year's conference range from formal concept analysis to decision making, from machine learning to natural language processing. *The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This book provides an introduction to health interoperability and the main standards used. Health interoperability delivers health information where and when it is needed. Everybody stands to gain from safer more soundly based decisions and less duplication, delays, waste and errors. The third edition of Principles of Health Interoperability includes a new part on FHIR (Fast Health Interoperability Resources), the most important new health interoperability standard for a generation. FHIR combines the best features of HL7’s v2, v3 and CDA while leveraging the latest web standards and a tight focus on implementability. FHIR can be implemented at a fraction of the price of existing alternativ...
This book provides a practical and self-contained overview of the Gene Ontology (GO), the leading project to organize biological knowledge on genes and their products across genomic resources. Written for biologists and bioinformaticians, it covers the state-of-the-art of how GO annotations are made, how they are evaluated, and what sort of analyses can and cannot be done with the GO. In the spirit of the Methods in Molecular Biology book series, there is an emphasis throughout the chapters on providing practical guidance and troubleshooting advice. Authoritative and accessible, The Gene Ontology Handbook serves non-experts as well as seasoned GO users as a thorough guide to this powerful knowledge system.

Ontological Engineering refers to the set of activities that concern the ontology development process, the ontology life cycle, the methods and methodologies for building ontologies, and the tool suites and languages that support them. During the last decade, increasing attention has been focused on ontologies and Ontological Engineering. Ontologies are now widely used in Knowledge Engineering, Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science; in applications related to knowledge management, natural language processing, e-commerce, intelligent integration information, information retrieval, integration of databases, b- informatics, and education; and in new emerging fields like the Semantic Web....
