Polyome: A Learning System for Extracting Bioinformatic Data

: The exponential growth in the quantity of publicly available genetic data and the proliferation of bioinformatic databases mean that scientists need computerized tools more than ever. Existing approaches to the problem all suffer from one or more basic problems. This paper describes Polyome, the core of a system for the integration and querying of data sources, designed to overcome these problems.
