Demo - Integrating Annotated Images with PO terms

JP gave a short demo with "mock-ups" to display one approach to integrating annotated images with PO terms on the PO web site (screenshots below). This one envisions pop-ups driven from links on PO term information pages -- perhaps in the External References section, or somewhere else on the page -- we have options and flexibility in this regard.

The long-term goal: A database on a PO server that stores images annotated with PO terms (internally and externally-generated), and a corresponding web interface to display them online in conjunction with other PO data. Currently being designed by JP and BA.

The desktop image annotation tool that allows curators to generate annotated images for future integration with web sites and other applications will be available for testing within a few weeks, but any db storage and web-based display of annotated images in conjunction with the PO site is not currently scheduled for active development and is a few months away, at a minimum.

Other notes about Images

Might be able to put together a publication about this new tool? LC would be interested in taking part.

  • From the BioCuration meeting: David Orloff, Senior Manager, Image Library, The American Society for Cell Biology.

"I would welcome a conversation to discuss presenting your images, videos, or animations in The Cell: An Image Library www.cellimagelibrary.org, and then linking back to your websites so that researchers can easily interact with the data. "

See link to image of Hibiscus Pollen grain on their site.

Should see if we can get permission to mirror their images on PO and add annotations. See if they can list PO ids as a source on their web page, like they do for GO and NCBI.

  • Ale got the ok to use the Setaria germination images: we need to give credit to Drs. John Dekker and Mitt Haar.

Update on the Release #17, April 2012

  • Review and Assessments:
  • Issue of files on Bioportal all "PO"- are we going to keep posting the separate aspect files?

Need to clarify where the various files go

  • What do we need to do better next time?

Now that we can use Oort, we can easily generate the asserted file earlier in the process and test load it onto Dev or beta. That way if we run into problems, it will not hold up the database loading. I suggest adding this conversion step to the dev loading script. That will make it easier to diagnose any issues early.

This is a good idea, although at this point, the creation of the asserted file cannot be done automatically and will have to be hand tweaked by the editors each time.

BS suggested that using "plant_ontology_assert" was misleading, and because this is the inferred file. RW pointed out that it was called "assert" based on the OboEdit function "assert implied links".

BS: Users should see the file with inferred relations asserted (They do, since that is what is on AmiGO).

We will look at the naming scheme that CM suggested (what GO uses) and see if that makes sense for PO.

Goals and Timeline for the next Release #18

Timeline: End of june to Mid- July- before BSA and ASPB meetings?

Agreed

Continue revisions and adding new terms for wood ontology

Most terms are in the PAE branch or for GO.

Can continue to add annotations as we go along, as well.

New or expanded association files:

  • potato
  • rice
  • grape

RW will email Stefan and Daniel to find out if either of them are planning to attend the moss meeting at NYBG this summer.

Plant Ontology Web Site and Browser Update:

Please see Plant_Ontology_Web_Site_Update:_Winter_2012 for more details

PO:IDs in definitions working as links, fixes to web page headers

  • Browser update- what is the status of this?

Complete old user requests/SF tracker items

  • LC attended and took part in the BioCreative workshop


Main topics:

  • Community annotation
  • Functional annotation and pathways
  • Databases & Journals – How to have a sustainable long term plan for journals and databases?
  • Careers in biocuration
  • Curation workflows and tools
  • Integrating text mining into biocuration workflows

Biocreative-2012 Workshop

Interactive Text Mining in the Biocuration Workflow

Textpresso

Pubtator

Upcoming meetings and Presentations 2012:

Semantics of Biodiversity Workshop

May 16 - 18, 2012

University of Kansas Biodiversity Institute, Lawrence, Kansas

The goals of this workshop (still being refined): 1) Clarification of terms used in the biodiversity, genomics, and ecological communities, and 2) Steps to take in building a Biocollections Ontology.

BS, MAG, and RW are attending.

SPNHC 2012

Annual meeting of the Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections

Yale University, New Haven Connecticut June 11-16, 2012

Any interest in making a PO presentation at this meeting? Perhaps RW and/or DWS could just go for the day of the presentation, since it is local (New Haven, CT).

The theme for the meeting is "Emerging Technology and Innovation in Natural History Collections Management" (focus on the tools, innovative methods and collaborations that will move the natural history collections community forward).

From PJ: If we can show progress in the FNA work or Morphobank yes we should

Crop Ontology Workshop

For more information see the wiki page: Crop_Ontology_Workshop_at_OSU,_2012

We are looking at the tentative dates of either: June 11-13th or Aug 6th to 8th

The focus of the workshop will be on mostly development stages and traits for the crop plants

Ruth Bastow is contacting some of the interested people to see which of these dates work best.

Can we consider September? RB is available 12th -25th September

Botany 2012

July 7 - 11, 2012 - Columbus, Ohio

see: Botany 2012 workshops

The meeting web site has been fixed so this is now listed as a half-day (morning) workshop. The schedule now links to the correct abstract.

RW will prepare an announcement for the PO home page and FB page.

Workshop goal will be to teach people (mostly botanists) how to access and use the PO, including how to send feedback, suggest new terms, etc.

PJ: suggest that we go there with a 'draft' version of the Plant Phenotype Ontology and show them how to use these in character matrices.

A desktop version of the image annotation software should be ready to demo at this meeting.

exhibitor's booth

We should also consider hosting an outreach booth.

Not a bad deal for non-profits: $500 for A 10 x 10 Booth Space at Botany 2012, and 2 complimentary registrations for the conference. (plus all the extras!)

• 2 months of Rotating Banner Ads in the online American Journal of Botany

• A Rotating Banner Ad in one edition of the online Plant Science Bulletin

• A Rotating Banner Ad on the Botany 2012 abstract submission site

• A Rotating Banner Ad on the 2012 Conference Registration site.

PJ will check with Gramene and Doreen Ware to see if they want to co-host a booth.

We should do the booth. PJ will attend to host the booth for both Gramene and PO.

Anatomy Ontology Course at NESCent, July 30th- Aug 3rd, 2012

Link to: Anatomy Ontology course

from Paula Mabee: Opening are available the Anatomy Ontology course.

Link to Course materials

This course aims to teach proper ontology design principles and practices such that anatomical interoperability across evolutionarily disparate taxa is achieved. It further seeks to promote community growth and adoption of ontology-based methods and tools. The subsequent benefit is in the form of shared access to the unique data store of each community (e.g. genetic, genomic, developmental, and evolutionary data).

Apply here: [1]

Application deadline is April 4th, 2012 (extended through mid-April)

LC will forward email to PO announce list and post on PO Facebook page.

Next meeting scheduled for Tuesday, April. 17th, 2012 at 10am PDT/1pm EDT
