Existing computational tools, resources, and services to assist experimental biomedical research lack data diversity and data connectivity and therefore, they are limited in helping to solve real world problems. Within the framework of CROssBAR project aiming for drug discovery, CROssBAR database (CROssBAR-DB) integrated diverse biomedical resources with the predictions of a comprehensive computing resource developed using machine learning and deep learning-based methods. It is crucial for the users to perform easily search on CROssBAR-DB, and then to visualize the result of the search. For this reason, CrossBAR web service (CROssBAR-WS) is designed, developed and implemented within the scope of this thesis. In CROssBAR-WS, knowledge graphs can be generated by using the open-source graph library Cytoscape.js. CROssBAR-WS is available at crossbar.kansil.org.

Information integration over distributed and heterogeneous resources has been challenging in many terms: coping with various kinds of heterogeneity including data model, platform, access interfaces; coping with various forms of data distribution and maintenance policies, scalability, performance, security and trust, reliability and resilience, legal issues etc. It is obvious that each of these dimensions deserves a separate thread of research efforts. One particular challenge among the ones listed above tha...
PROGRESSIVE CLUSTERING OF MANIFOLD-MODELED DATA BASED ON TANGENT SPACE VARIATIONS
Gokdogan, Gokhan; Vural, Elif (2017-09-28)
An important research topic of the recent years has been to understand and analyze manifold-modeled data for clustering and classification applications. Most clustering methods developed for data of non-linear and low-dimensional structure are based on local linearity assumptions. However, clustering algorithms based on locally linear representations can tolerate difficult sampling conditions only to some extent, and may fail for scarcely sampled data manifolds or at high-curvature regions. In this paper, w...
Fuzzy data representation and querying in XML database
Ustunkaya, Ekin; Yazıcı, Adnan; George, Roy (2007-02-01)
Real-world information including subjective opinions and judgments need imprecise data to be modeled for representation and querying in databases. The Extensible Markup Language (XML) has become a de-facto standard for data modeling and exchange in recent years. Efforts on modeling imprecision and representing such data in XML have not been fully developed. In this paper, an XML based fuzzy data representation and querying system is presented. Complex and imprecise data are represented using a fuzzy extensi...
Computation of Graph Spectra of Protein-Protein Interaction Networks
Karasözen, Bülent (2011-05-05)
Complex systems from many areas such as biology, sociology, technology appear in form of large networks. These networks are represented usually in form of graphs and their structural properties are analyzed using the methods of graph theory. The so called Laplacian matrix became an important tool of spectral graph theory for the investigation of structural properties of large biological networks. Many important features of the underlying structure and dynamics of systems can be extracted from the analysis o...
Evaluation of toolkits for visualizing information about performance of earthwork activities on construction job sites
Atasoy Özcan, Güzide (null; 2010-06-30)
Project team members interact with large multivariate datasets while monitoring the performance of construction projects. The analyses of such datasets are traditionally performed with statistical methods and usage of 2D graphics with x-y coordinates. However, these methods are disadvantageous compared to multi-dimensional information visualization, which can provide patterns of unprocessed data in a more descriptive and clear way. In order to provide support for visualization of data, several toolkits with...
