Description

The vast majority of current knowledge bases contain canonical disease pathways and rarely include uncommon disease mechanisms and drug actions. Furthermore, state-of-the-art knowledge representation (KR) methods still lack a capability to enable uncovering of implicit relationships without applying more complex reasoning techniques. Here, we developed a novel informatics framework for KR and reconciliation of disease pathways for precision medicine analytics. The framework introduces a multi-perspective consensus method for processing concordant, contradictory, and complimentary disease mechanisms.

Learning Objective: After participating in this session, the learner should be better able to:
Understand precision medicine challenges associated with knowledge representation
Undersatnd current challenges in biological knowledge bases' structure and scope
Learn advantages and disadvantages of knowledge representation methods
Learn about data-driven precision medicne analytics
Learn about data-driven medical discoveries
