Bartol, Jordan Nelson. "'Kind Historicism' & biological ontology." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2015. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/9473/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis develops a new theory of natural kinds for the biological world, called ‘Kind Historicism’, and addresses the relationship between natural kind theorizing and scientific reasoning. Applied to natural kinds and individuals in biology, Kind Historicism provides an ontology of the biological world. Discussions of biological ontology have struggled to balance insights from scientific practice with tools from analytic philosophy, metaphysics, and ontology. Ontological questions and practical/epistemic questions are often entangled. This thesis separates the two enquires, explaining why

Abstract:
The biological sciences are changing the ways in which we understand ourselves Biological Being is a philosophical exploration of biology, mapping some of the features of the field that make it so important in generating these changes Two central themes are at the heart of this exploration: biology is a science that should be grasped from a realist position, and it is a science that reveals a disunified, pluralistic world of kinds of things. After an introduction of some the issues involved, in three substantial chapters these themes are unpacked and analysed. The first major chapter is about

Abstract:
As the amount of accessible biological data is growing exponentially, it is becoming harder and harder to extract the biological knowledge contained in thousands of databases. Biomedical scientists collect facts, often recording them in natural language, and then use their knowledge to make inferences about as yet uncharacterised observations. Therefore, to make the best use of biological databases and the knowledge they contain, different kinds of information from different sources must be integrated in ways that make sense to the scientific community.

Abstract:
Biological motifs are defined as overly recurring sub-patterns in biological systems. Sequence motifs and network motifs are the examples of biological motifs. Due to the wide range of applications, many algorithms and computational tools have been developed for efficient search for biological motifs. Therefore, there are more computationally derived motifs than experimentally validated motifs, and how to validate the biological significance of the ‘candidate motifs’ becomes an important question. Some of sequence motifs are verified by their structural similarities or their functional roles i

Tese de mestrado, Bioinformática e Biologia Computacional (Bioinformática) Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Ciências, 2017<br>Conhecer a localização subcelular de um dado produto génico (i.e., onde a proteína codificada pelo gene está localizada) é particularmente importante para a anotação funcional das proteínas. Para lidar com o aumento exponencial do número de proteínas descobertas recentemente, foram desenvolvidos métodos computacionais capazes de prever a localização subcelular de proteínas. Uma vez que as proteínas localizadas em determinados compartimentos intracelulares possuem ca

Abstract:
Tese de mestrado, Bioinformática e Biologia Computacional, Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Ciências, 2019<br>Nos últimos anos, as ontologias biomédicas tornaram-se fundamentais para descrever o conhecimento biológico na forma de grafos de conhecimento. Consequentemente, foram propostas várias abordagens de mineração de dados que tiram partido destes grafos de conhecimento. Estas abordagens baseiam-se em representações vetoriais que podem não capturar toda a informação semântica subjacente aos grafos. Uma abordagem alternativa consiste em utilizar a semelhança semântica como representação
