Integrated Term Weighting, Visualization, and User Interface Development for Bioinformation Retrieval

This project implements an integrated biological information website that classifies technical documents, learns about users' interests, and offers intuitive interactive visualization to navigate vast information spaces. The effective use of modern software engineering principles, system environments, and development approaches is demonstrated. Straightforward yet powerful document characterization strategies are illustrated, helpful visualization for effective knowledge transfer is shown, and current user interface methodologies are applied. A specific success of note is the collaboration of disparately skilled specialists to deliver a flexible integrated prototype in a rapid manner that meets user acceptance and performance goals. The domain chosen for the ation is breast cancer, using a corpus of abstracts from publications online from Medline. The terms in the abstracts are extracted by word stemming and a stop list, and are encoded in vectors. A TF-IDF technique is implemente...
