Journal ArticleDOI
Galaxy: A Web‐Based Genome Analysis Tool for Experimentalists
Daniel Blankenberg,Gregory Von Kuster,Nathaniel Coraor,Guruprasad Ananda,Ross Lazarus,Ross Lazarus,Mary E. Mangan,Anton Nekrutenko,James Taylor,James Taylor +9 more
TL;DR: Galaxy is a software system that provides informatics support through a framework that gives experimentalists simple interfaces to powerful tools, while automatically managing the computational details.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Predicting Flu Trends using Twitter data
TL;DR: The Social Network Enabled Flu Trends (SNEFT) framework is presented, which monitors messages posted on Twitter with a mention of flu indicators to track and predict the emergence and spread of an influenza epidemic in a population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation of Academic Performance to Physical Activity and Fitness in Children
TL;DR: The results are concordant with the hypothesis that physical activity enhances academic performance, but the cross-sectional nature of the observations limits causal inference, and the disparity for PWC170 gives reason to question whether the associations were due to measurement bias or residual confounding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracting principal diagnosis, co-morbidity and smoking status for asthma research: evaluation of a natural language processing system
Qing Treitler Zeng,Sergey Goryachev,Scott T. Weiss,Margarita Sordo,Shawn N. Murphy,Ross Lazarus +5 more
TL;DR: The results are promising, given the complexity of the discharge summaries and the extraction tasks, and the expert-generated gold standard.
Journal ArticleDOI
