When he first arrived at the museum, Mr. Anderson reorganized the staff, assigning specific curators to specialized areas.
As mentioned, the project-specific curator can communicate with the field workers directly from the web interface using the instant messaging tool, Google Talk. Figure 3F illustrates the chat interface seen by the curator (this is not available in the public view of the website).
Those terms predicted most likely to be lipid related are examined by a human curator following specific curation rules to confirm the class labels.
Those terms with high prediction scores (i.e. likely to be lipid related) are then examined by a human curator following specific curation rules so that the predicted class labels (i.e. lipid related vs non-lipid related) can be confirmed.
Several other projects that rely exclusively on site-specific curators to add their data including eagle-i (11) and eBIRT (Biomedical Interactive Resource Tool; http://ebirt.emory.edu) have contributed significantly to describing resources in an interchangeable format.
Currently, numerous curation tools are available to help curators in accomplishing specific curation tasks.
Only two community-chosen terms associated to two articles were judged to be too specific by curators.
In all but two cases, terms judged to be insufficiently specific by curators could be replaced with a more specific term that already existed within the ontology.
> -wrap-foot> Ashownwn in Figure 4C, 10 articles were used to make 17 annotations to terms judged not to be specific enough after curator review.
I think a lot of people write about art in a specific way – particularly curators; they use quasi-academic speech in order to explain something which is actually simple, or is so difficult it defies being described so don't bother.
As a follow up to the workshop, the organizers did a survey of biocurators to determine how many groups were using text mining, and what curators' specific priorities were; these results are also reported in Ref. 14.
