Chemical Information Mining: Facilitating Literature-Based Discovery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780367386207)

This book focuses on information extraction issues, highlights available solutions, and underscores the value of these solutions to academic and commercial scientists. After introducing the drivers behind chemical text mining, the book discusses chemical semantics. The contributors describe the tools that identify and convert chemical names and images to structure-searchable information. They also explain natural language processing, name entity recognition concepts, and semantic web technologies. Following a section on current trends in the field, the text looks at where information mining approaches fit into research needs within the life sciences.
