Developing Graphic Libraries To Accompany The Craniofacial Human Ontology, Melissa D. Clarkson

Institute for Biomedical Informatics Faculty Publications

I describe the development of two graphic libraries to accompany parts of the Craniofacial Human Ontology. One library depicts phenotypes of cleft lip. The other represents development of the human head between 4 and 8 weeks of gestation.

Throughout the development of the Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA) ontology, one of the use cases put forth has been anatomy education. In this work, we examine which types of knowledge taught to anatomy students can be supported by the FMA knowledge base. We first categorize types of anatomical knowledge, then express these patterns in the form “Given ____, state ____”. Each of the 33 patterns was evaluated for whether this type of knowledge is compatible with the modeling and scope of the FMA.
