Description |
<p> </p><p>Semantic Interoperability and Data Mining in Biomedicine is a Network
of Excellence (NoE) funded by the European Commission under Framework 6. The general
objective of the network is to bridge gaps in European research infrastructure and
to facilitate cross-fertilisation between scientific disciplines such as computer
science, system engineering and medical/clinical research. The long-term goal of the
network will be the development of generic methods and tools supporting critical tasks
in medical and biomedical informatics, such as, data-mining, knowledge discovery,
knowledge representation, abstraction and indexing of information, semantic-based
information retrieval in a complex and high-dimensional information space, and knowledge
based adaptive systems for provision of decision support for dissemination of evidence
based medicine. There are 26 work packages in this project. We are involved in a number
of them, including the mobility programmes (WP6), the workshop/tutorial on Natural
Language Processing in the Biomedical domain (WP13), the workshop/tutorial on Text
Mining and Information Retrieval (WP15), the research activity on multilingual medical
dictionary (WP20) and the research activity on Ontology Engineering (WP21).</p> |
