Sentence examples for granular term from inspiring English sources

The most granular term annotated to all proteins in a cluster was used as the cluster label.

Inconsistent use of synonyms also presents a problem, as synonyms are often for a more or less granular term in another ontology.

Moreover, if an annotation is too specific for propagation, the annotator can choose to propagate a parent (less granular) term instead.

A more granular term is one that conveys a more specific meaning and is more distant from the root node of the ontology.

At the GO annotation level, precision is defined as the percentage of GO annotations made from Textpresso sentences that match either the gold standard GO term or a parent term (i.e. a correct but less granular term) in the ontology.

Annotations that are accurate at the time of their creation may become 'stale' for various reasons: if the GO structure changes, for example if a new, more granular term is added that is appropriate to the gene product; or if new characterization of a gene product means that a previously annotated role is seen to be indirect or is proven to be untrue.

Using these new more granular terms, biologists will be able to annotate gene products in more detail.

Thus, a match in which the combination of attributes in common is rare, or involves highly specific terms, will score more highly than those involving more frequent or less granular terms.

Nonetheless, our work supports the idea that there is a great need for tools and algorithms to assist curators in adequately assigning GO terms at the correct level, especially as GO continues growing and more granular terms are added.

Studies that attempt to integrate data from multiple databases and publications present challenges to the mapping of terms and data associated with these terms across different resources because database providers or authors may choose to use different terms with the same meaning or more granular terms to describe specific datasets.

An example is the fatty acid metabolism role of the peroxisome, which due to the focused annotation resulted in more granular terms 'fatty acid beta oxidation using acyl CoA oxidase' being included in the annotation set thus giving better depth of information to the peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation process.
