Get Alternate Names for Methods #4

Open vsoch opened 9 years ago

vsoch commented 9 years ago

A robust search will take a method, get all possible terms for it, and search for those. I'm not sure the best way to implement this... I was thinking of looking at Jonathan's work here: https://github.com/Network-of-BioThings/pubmed_plus

But likely if it's NCBO Bioportal, that means it's in javascript. Ideas?

You can always use the OWL API to parse the OWL files and extract terms from the concepts and hierarchies. There is an R library as well.
