Ontology Views Project
Summary:
Research into the generation and utilization of application specific views of reference ontologies. The principle goals of the Ontology Views Project are to:
- create application ontologies as views over reference ontologies
- embed these views as queryable web services.
In developing these methods we will pursue the following specific aims, in collaboration with the National Center for Bioontology (CBio) and the UW computer science department:
- investigate and develop view-based approaches for mapping between reference and application ontologies
- design and develop software tools that implement these approaches
- develop graphical interfaces that allow end-users to specify these mappings
