BioDataExploiter: A Semantic Search Engine Based on Formalization and Semantic Integration of Heterogeneous Omics Annotations for Knowledge Extraction
[On-going]
BioDataExploiter is a semantic search engine for performing aspect-based querying on integrated omics annotations. This project has two main functional components. First, heterogeneous and geographically dispersed omics annotations are integrated and warehoused in our RDF-based Integrated Omics Quad Store…
VR based neurogaming for mindfulness in children and ADHD patients
[On-going]
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a brain disorder targeting millions of children every year. It affects the cognitive abilities of children such as hyperactivity disorder, difficulty focusing, inattentiveness, and impulsive behaviors. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) estimated that about…
