= Satellite meeting for Literature and Text mining related issues =

== Topics ==

Different web tools allow researchers to search literature databases and integrate semantic information extracted from text with external databases and ontologies. Some of them even provide accessible APIs so users can build their own text mining pipelines.

'''Enhanced literature search and retrieval engines'''

(This shows the front-end of a text-mining system I (Tobias) developed previously. It has overlapped tagging as a result of multi-class NER and fulltext search)

 * Hong-Woo Chun
   * Introduction of Wired-Marker and XConc that are annotation tools and publicly available to use.
 * We explored the use of [http://www.urbigene.com/foaf/ scifoaf] (Pierre Lindenbaum) -> We need unique IDs (URI) for authors in publications!
 * We implemented some clients for [http://bcms.bioinfo.cnio.es/xmlrpc/ XML-RPC interface of BCMS] and [http://ubio.bioinfo.cnio.es/biotools/iHOP/ iHOP webservices]
 * We reviewed different solutions for collaborative anotations


== TODOs ==

 * provide [http://www.ebi.ac.uk/Rebholz-srv/IeXML/ ieXML ] support for existing services 
 * further integration of automatic annotation in the collaborative annotation tools
