It is well-known that Artificial Intelligence (AI), and in particular Machine Learning (ML), is not effective without good data preparation, as also pointed out by the recent wave of data-centric AI.

Article Synopsis
  • The ENCODE project is an expansive public database of over 4,000 experiments and 25,000 data files aimed at unlocking biological knowledge through genomic research.
  • Searching for relevant datasets within ENCODE has been challenging due to the simplicity and incompleteness of its metadata and the lack of a coherent ontology.
  • To address these limitations, the S.O.S. GeM system was developed, allowing for effective semantic search and retrieval of ENCODE datasets by utilizing a Semantic Knowledge Base that enhances search accuracy and relevance for biologists' queries.
