Text-mining approaches in molecular biology and biomedicine

Krallinger M, Erhardt R A-A and Valencia A.
Drug Discovery Today

Biomedical articles provide functional descriptions of bioentities such as chemical compounds and proteins. To extract relevant information using automatic techniques, text-mining and information-extraction approaches have been developed...

Status of text-mining techniques applied to biomedical text

Erhardt R A-A, Schneider R and Blaschke C.
Drug Discovery Today

Scientific progress is increasingly based on knowledge and information. Knowledge is now recognized as the driver of productivity and economic growth, leading to a new focus on the role of information in the decision-making process. Most scientific knowledge is registered in publications and other unstructured representations that make it difficult...

It is easier to find too many documents on a life science topic than to find the right information inside these documents. With the application of text data mining to biological documents, it is no surprise that researchers are starting to look at applications that mine out chemical information...
