Abstract: A method and system for annotation and classification of biomedical text having bacterial associations have been provided. The method is microbiome specific method for extraction of information from biomedical text which provides an improvement in accuracy of the reported bacterial associations. The present disclosure uses a unique set of domain features to accurately identify bacterial associations from the biomedical text. The disclosure further provides a method to use the set of domain features to improve a microbiome crowd sourcing setup and create a refined microbial association network. The refined bacterial association network can also be made corresponding to a disease or healthy state, which can be used for an improved understanding of the bacterial community structure and design therapeutic interventions. This refined bacterial association networks for a disease can then be used for clinical, therapeutic and diagnostic applications for treatment of the disease.

Abstract: The need for an accurate, early, and precise estimation of expected delivery date (EDD) for the pregnant subject is vital. A system and method for predicting a day/date of delivery for a pregnant subject using one or more microbiome samples collected from the pregnant subject is provided. The disclosure relates to applying machine learning techniques on the microbiome characterization data corresponding to the biological sample(s) collected from the pregnant subject. The method further comprises using the predicted EDD to suitably plan and take required medical treatment or precautions or medical advice for the pregnant subject to prevent any pregnancy and/or delivery related complications and to manage the delivery appropriately. The disclosure also provides compositions of the microbiome data which can potentially influence the delivery date, or the method provides exemplary compositions of the microbiome data which plays vital role in estimating the EDD of the pregnant subject.
