BioRover

BioRover takes a gene or disease name as input and generated a list of related disease or genes. Related genes and diseases are extracted by identifying gene and disease named entities from sentences. A dictionary-based disease name tagger was developed to identify disease entities and gene names were identified using a machine-learning based tagger. BioRover also allows users to filter results based on sentence modalities negation and speculation, and genetic and epigenetic factors such as mutation, methylation, and phosphorylation. Negation and speculation are identified using a machine learning-based tagger.
