METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR EXTRACTING PHENOTYPIC INFORMATION FROM THE LITERATURE VIA NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING

摘要

Systems and methods for extracting and encoding genotype-phenotype information from journal articles and other publications are provided. In some embodiments, the disclosed subject matter includes a preprocessor, boundary identifier, parser, phrase recognizer and an encoder to convert natural-language input text and parameters into structured text. The structured text can take the form of codes which account for genotype-phenotype information and are compatible with a controlled vocabulary.
