Ontologies and Controlled Vocabularies
Need customized interraction with existing ontologies?
Build custom ontologies?
Encorporate 3rd party updates?
Example of Prior Work
Custom Ontology Server(s)
Customized Open-Source ontology software (SciGraph, powered by Neo4j) and developed:
- System for streamlined server updates and custom deployment (using VirtualBox, Vagrant, .git and a set of scripts)
- Dynamic Cypher Queries
- Fuzzy Search, allowing scoring of inexact matches
- Custom Facades built on top of open-source ontology server (SciGraph)
- Custom Queries (common ancestor, etc)
- Flat-mirroring of ontologies in Postgres DB, allowing for faster custom searches
- Custom Vocabularies in Postgres, allowing to expand standard ontologies
- Load-balancing for high-availability applications
- Ontology management tool, allowing automatic reference ontology (DOID) updates, combined with custom ontology extensions
