PY - 2015 DA - 2015/02/21 TI - Extraction of relations between genes and diseases from text and large-scale data analysis: implications for translational research JO - BMC Bioinformatics SP - 55 VL - 16 IS - 1 AB - Current biomedical research needs to leverage and exploit the large amount of information reported in scientific publications. Automated text mining approaches, in particular those aimed at finding relationships between entities, are key for identification of actionable knowledge from free text repositories. We present the BeFree system aimed at identifying relationships between biomedical entities with a special focus on genes and their associated diseases.
