=== TAGC debrief ===
  
−
=== Parasite Paper Pipeline and Curation Status Tracking ===
+
==February 22, 2024==
−
*~4% of Journal articles (roughly, but not precisely, translates to curatable papers) mention both Caenorhabditis species and parasite species
 
−
*We discussed last week the options for accurately tracking data type flagging and curation status for these papers
 
−
*SVM does not flag data at the species level, but we need a way to distinguish curation status based on species or it will be difficult to get accurate numbers for Caltech and Hinxton
 
−
*One option would be to have separate status tables
 
−
**Lump Caltech and Hinxton species together or distinguish each species separately?
 
−
*Other options?
 
  
−
=== Intellectual lineage graph ===
+
===NER with LLMs===
−
* Raymond - are we ready to implement as a widget on person page?
 
−
* Can toggle to show only direct relationships
 
−
* Will eventually be able to toggle by relationship type
 
−
* These will simplify complex graphs
 
  
−
=== SVM for MGI ===
+
* 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%)
−
* Yuling is tying up loose ends for MGI SVM before he leaves
 
  
−
=== AGR Timeline meeting ===
+
* Is this similar to the FlyBase system? Recording of presentation  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1S4kZidL7gvBH6SjF4IQujyReVVRf2cOK
−
* Timeline still pretty high-level but making progress
 
  
−
=== Complex genotype to phenotype annotation ===
+
* Textpresso server is kaput. Services need to be transferred onto Alliance servers.
−
* Chris - still planning to work out details over models mailing list
 
−
* We can go ahead with the creation of phenotype report objects to encapsulate complex genotypes
 
−
* Another approach to consider is whether or not to create "set" objects that contain sets of, for example, alleles, genes, etc.
 
−
* We could potentially reuse sets as they come up again in different contexts, or in replicate experiments
 
  
−
=== Teleconference line ===
+
* There are features on Textpresso, such as link to PDF, that are desirable to curators but should be blocked from public access.
−
* New AT&T conference call is OK, not great
 
−
* BlueJeans is too expensive for our purposes
 
  
 +
* Alliance curation status form development needs use cases. ref https://wiki.wormbase.org/index.php/WormBase-Caltech_Weekly_Calls#February_15.2C_2024
  
−
== August 11, 2016 ==
 
  
−
=== Micropublications ===
 
−
* Would like to make more prominent on homepage
 
−
* Expanding micropublications to phenotype
 
−
** Would we require images, photographs of mutant worms
 
−
** Can clone phenotype form, but remove requirement for publication; also add funding sources
 
−
** Would negative data require controls?

=== Literature Migration to the Alliance ABC ===
 +
==== Use Cases for Searches and Validation in the ABC (or, what are your common actions in the curation status form)? ====
 +
===== Find papers with a high confidence NN classification for a given topic that have also been flagged positive by an author in a community curation pipeline and that haven’t been curated yet for that topic =====
 +
*Facet for topic
 +
*Facet for automatic assertion
 +
**neural network method
 +
*Facet for confidence level
 +
**High
 +
*Facet for manual assertion
 +
**author assertion
 +
***ACKnowledge method
 +
**professional biocurator assertion
 +
***curation tools method - NULL
  
−
=== Citace local upload August 30 ===
+
===== Manually validate paper - topic flags without curating =====
 +
*Facet for topic
 +
*Facet for manual assertion
 +
**professional biocurator assertion
 +
***ABC - no data
  
−
=== Tazendra ===
+
===== View all topic and entity flags for a given paper and validate, if needed =====
−
* Raymond installing new network card
+
* Search ABC with paper identifier
−
* Recent network crashes, unclear why
+
* Migrate to Topic and Entity Editor
−
* Raymond sent a help desk ticket to IMSS; no response so far
+
* View all associated data
−
* Michael and Ranjana have gotten network errors as well (when trying to deal with automated descriptions)
+
* Manually validate flags, if needed
  
−
=== Models updating ===
+
=== PDF Storage ===
−
* Wen has GitHub page bookmarked to retrieve latest models.wrm file
+
* At the Alliance PDFs will be stored in Amazon s3
−
* Older CVS system had used explicit release ID in name of file; not same now with GitHub
+
* We are not planning to formally store back-up copies elsewhere
−
* With GitHub, it could be easy to script retrieval of latest models.wrm file
+
* Is this okay with everyone?
  
−
=== Anatomy ontology, from OBO to OWL ===
+
==February 8, 2024==
−
* Major reason to do it: make direct connections to terms in other ontologies
+
* TAGC
−
* Can take advantage of other anatomy ontologies
+
** Prominent announcement on the Alliance home page?
−
* Should the WBbt "cell" be synonymous with generic "cell" or be referred to as "C. elegans cell"?
 
−
* Import versus cross-reference approach to linking ontologies
 
  
−
=== Noctua, LEGO curation ===
+
* Fixed login on dockerized system (dev). Can everybody test their forms?
−
* Weekly meetings, Monday mornings
 
−
* Nearly ready to release Noctua for use
 
−
* Ongoing discussion about use of relations from the relations ontology; maybe need some new terms
 
−
* Idea is to make Noctua the main GO annotation tool, for simple or complex annotations
 
−
* People still using legacy GAF file, need to transition to OWL format
 
−
* Training session at end of month (next week)
 
−
* GO meeting at USC in November; will dedicate the following week to Noctua/LEGO training workshop (Monday Nov 7th?)
 
−
* While curating need to consider whether a molecular function regulates a process or is part of a process; requires explicit positioning
 
−
* Need to deal with annotations to a generic gene product versus a specific gene product (one or all isoforms, for example)
 
−
* Would want a "enabled by product of" relation for genes
 
−
* Chris M concerned with having too many relations for curators to know/keep track of
 
−
* Training material should be available from the Noctua homepage
 
  
−
=== Community Phenotype annotation ===
+
==February 1, 2024==
−
* Still sending out emails, reached stopping point, for now (emailed most authors within last month)
+
* Paul will ask Natalia to take care of pending reimbursements
−
* Still getting consistent responses from authors
+
* Dockerized system slow pages (OA and FPKMMine). Will monitor these pages in the future. Will look for timeouts in the nginx logs.
−
* Working on homepage widget to display top contributors
 
  
−
=== Micropublications ===
+
==January 25, 2024==
−
* Daniela had sent out solicitations for expression data; some people expressed interest, but haven't heard back
+
 
−
* We could take the phenotype form and modify for micropublication
+
=== Curator Info on Curation Forms ===
 +
* Saving curator info using cookies in dockerized forms. Can we deploy to prod?
 +
 
 +
=== 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.
 +
* Show all C. elegans papers first and other species in a separate bin.
 +
 
 +
=== Travel Reimbursements ===
 +
* Still waiting on October travel reimbursement (Kimberly)
 +
* Still waiting on September and October travel reimbursements (Wen)
 +
 
 +
=== UniProt ===
 +
* Jae found some genes without uniProt IDs, but the genes are there on uniProt but without WBGene IDs.
 +
* Wen reached to Stavros and Chris to investigate WormBase and AGR angles.
 +
* Stavros escalates the issue on Hinxton Standup.
 +
* Mark checks Build scripts and WS291 results. After that, he contacted UniProt and he's working with them to figure this out.
 +
 
 +
==January 18, 2024==
 +
* OA showing different names highlighted when logging in the OA, now fixed on staging
 +
 
 +
 
 +
==January 11, 2024==
 +
* Duplicate function in OA was not working when using special characters. Valerio debugged and is now fixed.
 +
** Curators should make sure that, when pasting special characters, the duplicate function works
 +
* OA showing different names highlighted when logging in the OA, Valerio will debug and check what IP address he sees
 +
** If you want to bookmark an OA url for your datatype and user, log on once, and bookmark that page (separately for prod and dev)
 +
* Chris tested on staging and production the phenotype form and the data are still going to tazendra
 +
** Chris will check with Paulo. Once it is resolved we need to take everything that is on tazendra and put it on the cloud with different PGIDs
 +
** Raymond: simply set up forwarding at our end?
 +
* AI working group: Valerio is setting up a new account for open AI -paid membership for ChatGPT4. We can also use Microsoft Edge copilot (temporary?)
 +
