Background
The National Center for Biomedical Ontology will host a two-day workshop focused on the ontology of (biomedical) images and imaging. The workshop will take place on March 24-25, 2006 in Stanford. It will include hands-on experiments directed towards building a biomedical image ontology
The following topics will be addressed:
- steps towards coordination and integration of ontologies in the imaging domain
- use of ontologies in reasoning
- ontologies for classification of images, image features, interpretations,
the role of a reference ontology such as the FMA
-- the use of common relations (along the lines advanced in the OBO Relation Ontology), including relations among images, features, interpretations, and the underlying reality
- building an ontology of imaging tools and data, including issues related to the classification of imaging algorithms and to the potential uses of a tools ontology in supporting interoperability of bioinformatics software (in conjunction with the Software and Data Integration Working Group of the NIH Roadmap National Centers for Biomedical Computing).
The workshop is designed to be of value to all those involved in biocomputing in the imaging domain, including representatives of those NCBCs who use or develop imaging technologies. It has been made possible by financial support from GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Language & Computing (L&C). An agenda is provided here. Hotel and related information is provided here.
