New site release with WS230?
 
*About 2 months
 
 
 
 
 
Textpresso Interaction Sentences
 
*Now have sentences associated with interactions
 
*Need to discuss what sentences should be kept as adequate evidence of interaction and placed in remarks
 
*See if Textpresso can pull out paragraphs (or +/- 4 sentences?) for each sentence to see context
 
*Can we devise some automation to handle interaction updates?

SVM Computers in Church 63
+
==April 18th, 2024==
*SVM papers still in review (long process)
+
*NNC pipeline being switched off locally and moving into the Alliance ABC.
*Need to wait until SVM paper accepted before moving those computers
 
  
 +
==April 11th, 2024==
 +
*Caltech WS293 ace files ready for the upload
  
== January 19, 2012 ==
+
==April 4th, 2024==
 +
* Continued discussion on sustainability
 +
* CZI, single cell RNAseq for Alliance -> anything happening will be few months down the road
 +
** Data is still going to SPELL and enrichment analysis
 +
** Peter Roy asking about expression profile of a condition and find similar expression profiles (SPELL like analysis) but SPELL cannot currently deal with scRNAseq data. Wen says it is possible (regarding each cell group as an experiment). Can try loading the into SPELL. Doe it improve the function of SPELL? Only 5-10 datasets. These data are a bit different from bulk RNAseq.
 +
* Textpresso: good to have a presentation for other MODs to show Textpresso capabilities? Yes. Maybe during sprint review
 +
* Michael's presentation on LLMs - Named Entity Recognition (NER)
  
 +
==March 14, 2024==
  
Parsing Legacy data into database
+
=== TAGC debrief ===
*Need some model changes to get the data in
 
*Model changes would be to:
 
** Add an Ease_of_scoring (ES) tag to #Phenotype_info, and
 
** Add a Mating_efficiency tag under ?Variation
 
  
 +
==February 22, 2024==
  
Rescue_by_transgene tag
+
===NER with LLMs===
*If a transgene rescues an allele, it is placed under Rescue_by_transgene tag in the ?Variation class
 
*Move Rescue_by_transgene tag to #Phenotype_info in context of an Allele/Variation
 
*Can we display the transgene summary (i.e. genotype) in the Variation page? Yes
 
  
 +
* Wrote scripts and configured an LLM for Named Entity Recognition. Trained an LLM on gene names and diseases. Works well so far (F1 ~ 98%, Accuracy ~ 99.9%)
  
Changing author names in abstracts
+
* Is this similar to the FlyBase system? Recording of presentation  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1S4kZidL7gvBH6SjF4IQujyReVVRf2cOK
*Changing the text/authors of an abstract was decided to be not allowed
 
*Is this a work issue or just a policy issue?
 
*Both, but most importantly a policy issue
 
*We get asked to make many changes to abstracts (sometimes content)
 
*It was decided (for fairness) that we wouldn't make any changes
 
*Polls were already taken at International meeting; consensus is that no changes will be made
 
*Formalize an 'Erratum' remark; Author(s) can submit?
 
*Authors need to login, verify their identity and authorship before being able to make an Erratum comment
 
*Occasionally we may need to verify/resolve issues; that's OK
 
  
 +
* Textpresso server is kaput. Services need to be transferred onto Alliance servers.
  
SPELL download
+
* There are features on Textpresso, such as link to PDF, that are desirable to curators but should be blocked from public access.
*Users can download all (gene-centric, WormBase-parsed) SPELL data
 
*Wen wants to place the entire SPELL download on the FTP site
 
*Wen can send it to Todd
 
  
 +
* Alliance curation status form development needs use cases. ref https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls#February_15.2C_2024
  
RNAi probe mappings
 
*EBI will eventually take over RNAi probe mappings to genome
 
*EBI already maps genomic coordinates to genes
 
*If EBI can take over the first step of mapping, we can develop an RNAi OA
 
*Ideally, curators could submit: PCR product names (e.g. sjj_W02C12.3), raw DNA sequence, primers
 
*Maybe EBI only wants DNA text? Need to check with them
 
  
  
ePCR
+
==February 15, 2024==
*Old script
 
*Any newer scripts available? Substitution?
 
  
 +
=== Literature Migration to the Alliance ABC ===

*Various changes will be made to current version
 
  
 +
* The paper conducts an analysis of natural variations within 48 wild isolates. To enhance the reliability of the variant set, I utilized the latest variant calling methods along with a custom filtering approach. The resulting dataset comprises 1,957,683 unique variants identified using Clair3. Additionally, Sniffles2 was used to identify indels of >30 bp, which numbered in the thousands to tens of thousands for most wild isolates. It is worth noting that variants identified with Sniffles2 have less reliable nucleotide positions in the genome.
  
SVM paper done
+
* I am reaching out to inquire whether WormBase would be interested in incorporating this dataset. An argument in favor is the higher quality of my data. However, I am mindful of the potential substantial effort involved for WormBase, and it is unclear whether this aligns with your priorities.
  
 +
* Should WormBase decide to use my variant data set, I am more than willing to offer my assistance.
  
 +
=== Update on NN Classification via the Alliance ===
 +
* Use of primary/not primary/not designated flag to filter papers
 +
* Secondary filter on papers with at least C. elegans as species
