Projects: ApiNATOMY

Practice, research and training in bio-medicine generate considerable amounts of clinical and scientific resources in the form of electronic data and computational models. A significant proportion of such resources carries information that cross-references to anatomical structures. We develop interactive software tools for effective graphical presentation of structured information. A key element in our work is a customizable model for representation of graphs of entities and their relationships. Using our modeling languages and GUIs, a user will be able to specify views, templates, and transformations of ontology trees and relationships among their elements. The appropriate layout for the structured information is defined by customized templates and/or algorithms that define positions of model elements using constraint-satisfaction methods.
