A Study Of Correlations Between The Definition And Application Of The Gene Ontology, Yuji Mo
A Study Of Correlations Between The Definition And Application Of The Gene Ontology, Yuji Mo
Computer and Electronics Engineering: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
When using the Gene Ontology (GO), nucleotide and amino acid sequences are annotated by terms in a structured and controlled vocabulary organized into relational graphs. The usage of the vocabulary (GO terms) in the annotation of these sequences may diverge from the relations defined in the ontology. We measure the consistency of the use of GO terms by comparing GO's defined structure to the terms' application. To do this, we first use synthetic data with different characteristics to understand how these characteristics influence the correlation values determined by various similarity measures. Using these results as a baseline, we found that …

The exponentially increasing amount of data in file systems has made it increasingly important for users, administrators and applications to be able to fast retrieve files using file-search services, instead of replying on the standard file system API to traverse the hierarchical namespaces. The quality of the file-search services is significantly affected by the file-indexing overhead, the file-search performance and the accuracy of search results. Unfortunately, the existing file-search solutions either are so poorly scalable that their performance degrades unacceptably when the systems scale up, or incur so much crawling delays that they produce acceptably inaccurate results. We believe that …
