  • Patent number: 7562074
    Abstract: A method of providing semantically relevant, ranked search results is described. An assignment of an occurrence of a term within a document to an ontological node is received based on usage of the occurrence of the term within the document. An accuracy value associated with the assignment is determined by comparing the assignment with a baseline assignment. A consistency value associated with an assignor is determined based on a repeatability of a plurality of assignments by the assignor. An assignor relevance score for the occurrence of the term is determined by statistically combining the accuracy value and the consistency value. An overall semantic relevance value for the occurrence of the term is determined by statistically combining the assignor relevance score determined for a plurality of assignors. The documents are ranked based on the overall semantic relevance value and presented in response to a search request.

  • Publication number: 20040024543
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods and systems for organizing complex and disparate data. More specifically, the present invention provides methods and systems for organizing complex and disparate data into coherent data sets. Coherent data sets resulting from the methods and systems of the present invention serve as models for biological systems. Methods and systems for integrating data and creating coherent data sets are useful for numerous biological applications, such as, for example, determining gene function, identifying and validating drug and pesticide targets, identifying and validating drug and pesticide candidate compounds, profiling drug and pesticide compounds, producing a compilation of health or wellness profiles, determining compound site(s) of action, identifying unknown samples, and numerous other applications in the agricultural, pharmaceutical, forensic, and biotechnology industries.
