The rapid development of microarray and other genom ic technologies now enables biologists to monitor t he expression of hundreds, even thousands of genes in a single experiment. Interpreting the biological m eaning of the expression patterns still relies largely on biologist's domain knowledge, as well as on information collected from the literature and various public databases. Yet i ndividual experts’ domain knowledge is insufficient for large data sets, and collecting and analyzing this information manually from the literature and/or public databases is tedious and time-consuming. Computer-aided functional analy sis tools are therefore highly desirable.
We describe the architecture of GeneNarrator, a tex t mining system for functional analysis of microarr ay data. This system’s primary purpose is to test the feasib ility of a .. View More»
