* '''Annotator''': a service that identifies mentions of biomedical ontology concepts in text that users submit. You can use the annotator service to tag automatically any item of interest with terms from UMLS and BioPortal ontologies. The Annotator is accessible via the [http://bioportal.bioontology.org/annotate BioPortal user interface] and as a [http://bioontology.org/wiki/index.php/Annotator_Web_service REST service]

BioPortal 2.1 consists of two NCBO software packages: BioPortal Core (Label 1014) and BioPortal UI (Label 1019).

New Features

  • Annotator: a service that identifies mentions of biomedical ontology concepts in text that users submit. You can use the annotator service to tag automatically any item of interest with terms from UMLS and BioPortal ontologies. The Annotator is accessible via the BioPortal user interface and as a REST service
  • Advanced ontology search user interface enables users to select which ontologies or categories of ontologies to search, specify search parameters, and filter and navigate easily through the search results
  • Ontology-based projects: You can now describe your ontology-based projects, indicate which BioPortal ontologies you use, and provide reviews of those ontologies in the context of your project
  • Version management for OWL ontologies: you can download a diff between successive versions of an OWL ontology in tab-delimited format or as a set of RDF instances of the Protégé Change and Annotations ontology. See, for example, the details for the Biomedical Resource Ontology, to see a listing of diffs for its versions.
  • Within-ontology search: you can use the search box at the top of each ontology tree to type in preferred name or a synonym and jump directly to one of the concepts that matches your search term (look for the "Jump to" box when you are exploring an ontology)
  • Support for different hierarchy relations in OBO format ontologies: just like in OBO-Edit, you will now see different icons when you browse the tree for an OBO ontologies, indicating the specific relationship between a child and a parent node (such as is-a or part-of)
  • Numerous improvements in user interaction:
    • The new home page enables direct access to key BioPortal functionality, such as searching ontologies for terms, finding a specific ontology of interest, or searching the NCBO Resource index to find resources mentioning a particular concept of interest.
    • New look and feel for BioPortal user interface
    • Additional details on the ontology metadata page
    • It is now easier to add and view reviews for a particular ontology
    • Many other user interface improvements and fixes
  • Prototypes of upcoming features for accessing the NCBO Resource index:
