    AKS2 (alma Knowledge Server)

    Category  Cross-Omics>Data/Text Mining Systems/Tools

    Abstract  AKS2 is a biological knowledge system that manages
    information extracted directly from scientific literature using the most
    advanced text mining techniques. It provides advanced search and
    visualization capabilities to navigate the knowledge network and
    contains functionality to identify relevant information.

    Product features/capabilities include:

    Save time -- The data integration in the AKS2 system will allow you to
    retrieve all the information related to a concept No matter what
    synonym is used in the text being searched. Therefore, from just one
    place you can have complete results.

    Keep current -- It is almost impossible for any researcher to manually
    review the 1000's of new documents released daily. With the AKS alert
    system, you can create a useful set of query terms and then you can
    forget about them. If any of your query terms are found in a new
    abstract/document, an email notification is automatically sent to you,
    and the new content allows you to launch AKS from within the email
    notification in order to see the results that have been found.

    Analyze many abstracts with little effort -- AKS2 highlights all the
    relevant biomedical concepts in the abstract. Each concept group
    (genes, drugs, diseases...) displays a different color pattern making it
    easier to find them in the displayed text.

    Relate to a variety of concepts -- Search for documents, read the
    results, relate to them with previous knowledge and understanding is
    the method that is followed in other information extraction software
    systems. AKS2 proposes a new, more natural and efficient approach
    by letting you see the relevant relationship of the concepts searched
    before reading any abstract. With this approach you will only read what
    is useful to you.

    Share your results with your colleagues -- Export your results to a
    Portable Document Format (PDF) file or an Excel spreadsheet. Three
    (3) types of reports are available: 1) Summary report; 2) Related
    bioentity report; 3) Documents report.

    Understand experimental results better -- Genomics, proteomics,
    metabolomics... Today, many biomedical techniques imply massive
    experimental results, which are impossible to interpret without the help
    of computers. With AKS2 you can analyze the relationship(s) in the
    literature about genes that follow similar expression patterns, etc.
    Chemical info, including PubChem data -- More than 1 million new
    chemical compounds are now annotated in bioalma’s biomedical
    literature and linked to external databases such as PubChem.
    Journal name search -- You can limit your search query to a certain
    journal. You can also choose what type of publication you want to
    search.

    What is behind AKS --

    1) Data integration: bioalma performs a deep investigation to find the
    most reliable databases to elaborate its dictionaries.

    2) Literature analysis: bioalma integrates external information with its
    text mining analysis results.

    3) Database: the information is organized in a relational database
    which is updated daily.

    4) Information access: access to the information is performed through
    advanced analysis and visualization tools or through bioalma's coding
    library.

    AKS2 allows you to --

    1) Extract relations between biomedical concepts (genes, diseases,
    drugs, chemicals, symptoms, organisms...)

    2) Access external databases information.

    3) Filter information and perform a graphical representation of the
    information found.

    4) Extract common information among a group of biomedical concepts.

    5) Search for a specific set of documents --
    a) Search documents containing a bioentity (gene/protein, disease,
    symptom, chemical, drug, organism, bioaction, bioterm).
    b) Search documents written by an Author.
    c) Search documents that mention a specific word.
    d) Search documents with a PubMed ID (PMID).
    e) Perform an advanced search with logical operators.
    f) Limit your search to a certain time period.

    6) Highlight the most interesting concepts on each document.

    7) Visualize graphically the relation between concepts and access their
    source documents.
