=== AGENDA ===
+
[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2017|2017 Meetings]]
  
* Apologies from Mary Ann - in Strasboug. Might try and Skype in. - Mary Ann joined in at the end of the call.
+
[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2018|2018 Meetings]]
* Curation of protein complexes - will wait until Chris can join in.
 
* Set up a time next week to go over what more needs to be done for the construct/variation/transgene class - Main people being Mary Ann, Daniela, Chris, and Karen, others are welcome. Visit the construct model requests [http://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase_Model:Construct here]
 
* Raymond gave an update on WObr. Juancarlos has learned enough Catalyst to create a workable ontology browser on the caltech wormbase sandbox.
 
**The browser can accommodate all ontologies used by Caltech curators (all GO, Phenotype, Anatomy, Life Stage, Disease)
 
**A browser will be on each respective ontology page;
 
***direct and indirect gene connections will be displayed in a list format
 
***there was a request that the gene connections to ontology terms display the indirect annotations with direct annotations in parenths
 
**various ontology browsers can be in their own widgets where desired.
 
**still need to set up the search function from the main wb search
 
*  Caltech Models due Thursday 16 January 2014
 
* Caltech WS242 data due into Citace by Tuesday Jan 28.
 
*  Biocuration 2014
 
**http://biocuration2014.events.oicr.on.ca/biocuration
 
**M. Tuli, X. Wang interested in attending.

[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2022|2022 Meetings]]
  
=== Author/Person issues ===
+
[[WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls_2023|2023 Meetings]]
*User was looking for papers for a specific person
 
*Person was an author, but did not have a WBPerson object
 
*Cecilia will contact user
 
*Make author names searchable? ~32,000 authors without a person object
 
*How many authors (without a WBPerson) have multiple (5+?) papers?
 
*Proposal 1: make WBPersons for authors with 5 or more articles, and/or sort results of a search by number of publications
 
*Proposal 2: Search for WBPerson (no autocomplete function); if no WBPerson, look up authors (prioritized search)
 
  
 +
==April 18th, 2024==
 +
*NNC pipeline being switched off locally and moving into the Alliance ABC.
  
=== Timeline for ?Construct model ===
+
==April 11th, 2024==
*For WS243?
+
*Caltech WS293 ace files ready for the upload
*Mapping primers used for expression constructs or reporters
 
*Integration of sequence features
 
*Examples of the new Crispr/CAS (genome editing) alleles (curated with flanking sequences)
 
*AddGene plasmids etc.
 
*Karen will move ahead with the ?Construct model just for the context of genome-editing alleles
 
*Other contexts can be added later
 
  
 +
==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)
  
=== Topic Curation ===
+
==March 14, 2024==
*Is there a way to update curators if a new paper is added to the current focus topic?
 
*No, but curators can just send around an e-mail and/or query through the topic OA and curation status form
 
  
 +
=== TAGC debrief ===
  
=== WormBase Ontology Browser (WOBr) ===
+
==February 22, 2024==
*Juancarlos can now modify WormBase widgets, but would need to learn how ACEDB is handled, if required
 
*We want to workout a pipeline for widget/website modifications, proposals etc.
 
*WOBr is not working off of ACEDB
 
*Note: WOBr is going to be a widget on the Ontology Term page (all other ACEDB-based info will be present on page)
 
*General structure:
 
**Testing site: http://juancarlos.wormbase.org/tools/ontology_browser
 
**Two entry points: 1. Homepage "Tools" menu (tree-like view from root terms), 2. Specific ontology term page (WOBr widget)
 
**Data present: ontology term objects, associated genes
 
*Association files needed: Disease, Life stage
 
*Curators are now testing and commenting on WOBr
 
*Difficult to implement: display of evidence codes, sorting by species
 
**Will consider for second generation WOBr
 
*Do we want species-specific WOBr? C. elegans WOBr? Yes, probably; not clear how to implement
 
**WormBase ontologies are currently species-agnostic
 
**Maybe we should have species-specific ontology terms/pages
 
*When displaying the number of associated gene products, we could/should? distinguish the number of gene products from C. elegans versus other species (or ALL species)
 
*Direct vs. indirect/inferred annotations, how to display at different points? Ignore numbers for ancestor terms? Speed is an issue
 
*The new Solr update may allow for precalculated/precached number calculations, which should improve speed
 
  
== January 23, 2014 ==
+
===NER with LLMs===
  
=== AGENDA ===
+
* 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%)
  
Biocuration 2014
+
* Is this similar to the FlyBase system? Recording of presentation https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1S4kZidL7gvBH6SjF4IQujyReVVRf2cOK
** Mary Ann's flights are booked.
+
 
** Shall we ask for a WormBase booth/helpdesk table?
+
* Textpresso server is kaput. Services need to be transferred onto Alliance servers.
 +
 
 +
* There are features on Textpresso, such as link to PDF, that are desirable to curators but should be blocked from public access.
 +
 
 +
* Alliance curation status form development needs use cases. ref https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls#February_15.2C_2024

=== ACKnowledge Author Request - WBPaper00066091 ===
 +
* I am more than willing to assist; however, the task exceeds the capabilities of the normal flagging process.
 +
 
 +
* 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.
 +
 
 +
* 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
 +
* Finalize sources (i.e. evidence) for entity and topic tags on papers
 +
* Next NN clasification scheduled for ~March
 +
 
 +
* We decided to process all papers (even non-elegans species) and have filters on species after processing.
 +
* NNC html pages will show NNC values together with species.
