Supporting Knowledge Discovery in Life Sciences

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The massive amount of publicly available data is an amazing opportunity for artificial intelligence to play a key role in life sciences. Automatic approaches have proven to be effective in supporting life sciences research, yet mining complex and unstructured data is still a major challenge. In this context, the objective of my research program is to contribute to knowledge discovery in life sciences by easing access to existing knowledge, and supporting its exploration. I propose to reach this objective by creating algorithms to jointly retrieve and mine textual and non-textual data. Life scientists looking for existing knowledge face critical challenges such as discovering entities in documents, retrieving documents and data relevant to specific topics, or analyze data according to their contribution to experiments.
