Abstract

This research aims for the creation of a core biomedical ontology for chronic liver disease using UMLS as data source. As users cannot work on the accessible information by themselves due to unstructured format of biomedical data and literature, ontologies helps to create structure for the existing information. Resource description framework (RDF) is used in protégé tool for creation of schemas and on the basis of these schemas ontology is developed to describe the concepts and their respective relations within chronic liver disease. It is further evaluated by domain experts.
