Genomic CDS: an Example of a Complex Ontology for Pharmacogenetics and Clinical Decision Support.
Matthias Samwald · 2013
Abstract. Individual genetic data can be used to better predict the efficacy and safety of medications for individual patients. The Genomic Clinical Decision Support (Genomic CDS) ontology aims to utilize advanced Web Ontology Language 2 (OWL 2) reasoning for this task. The important, clear-cut medical use case, the complex axioms in the ontology and the heavy use of qualified cardinality restrictions make the ontology an interesting test object for new OWL 2 reasoners with improved performance.
