  1. RightFieldThe Semantic Annotation of Experimental Data using Spreadsheets, Katy Wolstencroft, Stuart Owen, Matthew Horridge, Olga Krebs, Wolfgang Mueller Carole Goble

  2. RightField A tool for embedding ranges of ontology terms into spreadsheets to allow the users of those spreadsheets to add semantic annotations from simple drop-down lists

  3. RightField • A tool for embedding ranges of ontology terms into spreadsheets to allow the users of those spreadsheets to add semantic annotations from simple drop-down lists Why? • Makes annotation quicker and more efficient • Standardises annotation • Hides the ontology complexity from the users

  4. Managing Biological Data Describeexperiments and results of experiments Minimal Information Models Guidelines, Checklists, vocabularies Necessary for publication, submission to public databases and sharing

  5. Managing Biological Data Describeexperiments and results of experiments Minimal Information Models Guidelines, Checklists, MIACAMinimal Information About a Cellular Assay MIAMEMinimum Information About a Microarray Experiment MIAPEMinimum Information About a Proteomics Experiment MIAREMinimum Information About a RNAi Experiment MIASEMinimum Information About a Simulation Experiment MIBBI >30

  6. Managing Biological Data Describeexperiments and results of experiments Ontologies and Vocabularies for Annotation Gene Ontology ChEBI MGED SBO BioPortal >270 biomedical ontologies

  7. SysMO: Systems Biology of Micro-Organisms SysMO Consortium SysMO-DB SysMO-SEEK – a platform for systems biology data sharing Web based environment for sharing in the consortium and disseminating to the community Used in other consortia: Virtual Liver, EraSysBio+, UNICELLSYS and more.... • Pan-European consortium • > 100 research groups • > 320 scientists • Distributed, interdisciplinary projects • Expected to pool data and results and disseminate • Microbiologists, molecular biologists, biochemists, mathematicians....not many informaticians

  8. Associating Experiments SOP SOP SOP Investigation Study Assay Construction Validation http://isatab.sourceforge.net/

  9. Data Templates and Vocabularies SOP SOP SOP Metabolomics Proteomics Metabolomics Mass Spec Fluxomics Transcriptomics Construction Validation

  10. Fitting in with Laboratory practices • Scientists can continue to do what they have always done • Embedding semantics into the tools already in use • Excel, excel, excel.....

  11. The End Result Ontology terms for marked-up cells in drop-down boxes

  12. How it Works Marked-up workbook Saved in plain Excel Excel Workbook RightField Client Terms Embeddedinto Excel Workbook Ontology “Portion” of ontology terms End Users Informaticians/ontologists

  13. RightField Application

  14. Loading Ontologies Publishedontologies Multiple versions You can also load local ontologies from file or URL

  15. Loading Ontologies

  16. Excel workbook loaded into RightField with multiple worksheets

  17. Class hierarchies of loaded ontologies

  18. Selected parent term from the ontology Methods for specifying ontology terms Term lists for selected cells

  19. Excel workbook with marked-up cells

  20. Marking-up Columns or Rows

  21. The User View Ontology terms for marked-up cells in drop-down boxes

  22. Ontology Information • Ontologies encapsulated • Scientists can work offline • Ensures same versions of ontologies used for a series of experiments • No special macros or plugins required, just Excel or Open Office • Versions and URIs captured in hidden worksheets • Provenance • Comparisons between sheets • Linking back to the vocabularies

  23. Provenance The human readable term label Term Label The (unique) term identifier Term IRI The ontology that defines the term Ontology IRI The version of the ontology Ontology Version The (web) location of the ontology Physical Location

  24. RightField Technologies Java Platform Independent OWL API Loading ontologies and reasoning Apache POI HSSF libraries Loading and saving of Excel Spreadsheets

  25. Ontology Languages RDFS - RDF Schema OWL - Web Ontology Language OBO - Open Biomedical Ontologies

  26. RightField in Use • SysMO – Systems Biology of MicroOrganisms • E-Lico - a virtual laboratory for interdisciplinary collaborative research in data mining and data-intensive sciences. Case Studies in kidney research • BioBanking in the Netherlands Outside Biology • Oil and Gas industry • Egyptology specimen classification

  27. Using RightField Spreadsheets Populate RDF Graph Extract Store / Reuse

  28. Future Developments • Auto-complete • Validation of annotation • Populating ontology content - Populous

  29. Populous • Generic tool for populating ontology templates • Supports validation at the point of data entry • Expressive Pattern language for OWL Ontology generation • Helps biologists with ontology design patterns http://www.e-lico.eu/populous Simon Jupp, Robert Stevens, University of Manchester
