It's not on a cronjob, because I think the files are not updated that

often.  Do we want to run this every night, or run it manually when

the files get re-generated ?  Or run every night, and check if the
 +
files's timestamps have changed, then repopulate postgres ?

=== Neural Network (NN) Paper Classification Results ===
 +
* Linking to Paper Display tool (as opposed to Paper Editor) from Michael's webpage for NN results (Michael will make change)
 +
* NN results will be incorporated into the Curation Status Form
 +
* For AFP and VFP, there is now a table with mixed SVM and NN results ("blackbox" results); for a given paper, if NN results exist, they take priority over any SVM results
 +
* Decision: we will omit blackbox results (at least for now) from curation status form (just add the new NN results separately)
 +
* We have stopped running SVM on new papers
 +
* Interactions SVM has performed better than new NN results; would be worth attempting a retraining
  
 +
=== Community Phenotype Curation ===
 +
* On hold for a few months to commit time to updating the phenotype annotation model to accommodate, e.g. double mutant phenotypes, multiple RNAi targets (intended or otherwise), mutant transgene products causing phenotypes, expressed human genes causing phenotypes, etc.
 +
* Changes made for WB phenotypes may carry over to Alliance phenotype work
 +
* [https://www.preprints.org/manuscript/202101.0169/v1 Paper out now] on undergrad community phenotype curation project with Lina Dahlberg; we may get more requests for trying this with other undergrad classes

=== AFP Anatomy Function flagging ===
 
+
* Sometimes it is difficult to assess whether an author flag is correct (often times can be wrong/absent)
===WS279 GAF 2.0 and disease files===
+
* What about giving authors/users feedback on their flagging results?
*Valerio and Ranjana still working with the GAF 2.0 files to generate gene descriptions
+
* Would be good to provide content from paper where this data is said to exist (automatically from a Textpresso pipeline or manually from author identified data)
*Valerio and Ranjana will probably have a meeting with Magdalena to sort out the FTP file issues for gene descriptions
+
* We want to be careful about how we provide feedback; we should be proactive to make improvements/modifications on our end and bring those back to users for feedback to us
*Will let Raymond know if the disease GAFs are okay after they test these for gene descriptions
 
*Raymond needs the GAFs for WoBR
 
 
 
===Experimenting with addeding new citace data to the current WS release ===
 
*Wen will take the newest expression, physical interaction, and paper class from postgres, add them to WS279 to create a "WS279.1" version of ACeDB database. Then compare WS279.1 to WS279 by comparing the SimpleMine results generated from these two versions of ACeDB. The goal is to explore the possibility of notifying users some of the new curation since the data freeze for the WS build.
 
 
 
===MicroPub user webinar on Nov 9th===
 
*Ranjana and Kimberly have conflicts--Alliance call and GO call. Anyway microPub team is running the show and they have other WormBasers to help as well.
 
 
 
===WS280 deadlines===
 
*Caltech files due for citace: Dec 15th, 2020
 
 
 
 
 
==Nov 12th, 2020==
 
=== Cynthia Kenyon tool ===
 
* developed a new tool for the worm, complete with tutorials, for analyzing gene expression data using Gene Module analysis.
 
* tool at http://genemodules.org
 
* add link outs from the gene expression widget or add in general WB tools?
 
* if we want to incorporate we need to have it updated.
 
* are they maintaining it?
 
* there's no RNAseq, can be outdated
 
* maybe good to add a blog post
 
 
 
=== Graphical curation tool update===
 
* We will show a live demo on the current state of the graphical curation tool
 
 
 
=== Curating to human genes in ACEDB ===
 
* Karen requested option to curate constructs with human genes
 
* Would we need to change our human genes in ACEDB? For example, migrate from Ensembl IDs to HGNC IDs as primary keys?
 
* Will discuss on next site-wide call
 
 
 
=== GAF (and GAF-like) file headers ===
 
* GO GAF files (on FTP, WS279) for WormBase now in 2.2 format with header like
 
!gaf-version: 2.2
 
!generated-by: WormBase
 
!date-generated: 2020-10-30
 
! WB annotations 00015014
 
* For files that can migrate to 2.2 format (e.g. always require column 4 qualifier) we could adopt a similar header
 
* For other files (that cannot always have a qualifier in column 4), we could stick to 2.0 format with a header like:
 
!gaf-version: 2.0
 
!generated-by: WormBase
 
!date-generated: 2020-10-30
 
* Current need is to include information about format specification, possibly in addition to other extra header content.
 
* New proposed headers:
 
!project-URL: https://wormbase.org
 
!specification-URL: https://github.com/geneontology/geneontology.github.io/blob/issue-go-annotation-2917-gaf-2_2-doc/_docs/go-annotation-file-gaf-format-22.md
 
OR
 
!specification-URL: https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase_gene_association_file
 
!project-release: WS279
 
* Could repurpose the Wiki page: https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase_gene_association_file from internal docs only to include user guide info, including how our GAF-like files deviate in format from standard GAF
 
 
 
 
 
== Nov 19, 2020 ==
 
 
 
=== Webinars ===
 
* JBrowse webinar tomorrow (Friday)
 
** Ranjana will host; Wen will provide tech support; Daniela will collect user questions from chat in Google Doc; Chris will write staff answers to questions in Google Doc
 
* Background slides put together for when audience is waiting
 
* Wen will start the meeting at 9:30am Pacific; can run a test poll
 
* Questions will be collected in Google Doc; answers can be written into the Google Doc in real time; we can use the Google Doc as a reference to assemble FAQs later
 
 
 
=== Alaska ===
 
* Is Eduardo still working on it?
 
* He replied to a user asking about Alaska
 
* Is it still running? Maintained?
 
* Can we tell what usage it gets?
 
* Is it useful for the Alliance? Maybe can write it into grant?
 
* Is it commercially viable? Maybe someone can write an SBIR grant proposal?
 
 
 
=== Server space ===
 
* No new space in Chen building
 
* Many servers will stay in a server room where they are currently
 
* Other servers we will need to see if they can be moved to Chen

PubMed LinkOut to WormBase Paper Pages (Kimberly)

  • Other databases link out from PubMed to their respective paper pages
  • For example, https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20864032/ links out to GO and MGI paper pages
  • Would like to set this up for WormBase and ultimately for the Alliance, but this will require some developer help
  • Work on this next month (after AFP and GO grant submissions)?

Update cycle for HGNC data in the OA (Ranjana)

  • Juancarlos had these questions for us:

There's a script here that repopulates the postgres obo_*_hgnc tables
based off of Chris and Wen's data
/home/postgres/work/pgpopulation/obo_oa_ontologies/populate_obo_hgnc.pl 

It's not on a cronjob, because I think the files are not updated that
often.  Do we want to run this every night, or run it manually when
the files get re-generated ?  Or run every night, and check if the
files's timestamps have changed, then repopulate postgres ?
