My first BioAID: heuristic support for hypothesis construction from literature
0Motivation
Constructing a new hypothesis is often the first step for a new cycle of experiments. A typical approach to harvesting biological literature is to scan the results of a PubMed query and read what we think is most relevant. In this scenario, we are limited by the selection of More >
Expanding Queries Using Multiple Resources
0We describe our participation in the TREC 2006 Genomics track, in which our main focus was on query expansion. We hypothesized that applying query expansion techniques would help us both to identify and retrieve synonymous terms, and to cope with ambiguity. To this end, we developed several collection-specific as More >
Deploying Lucene on the Grid
0We investigate if and how open source retrieval engines can be deployed in a grid environment. When comparing grids to conventional distributed IR, the lack of a-priori knowledge about available nodes is one of the most significant differences. On top of that, it is also unknown when a particular More >
