| 7 | === Current Status === |
| 8 | Cytoscape already has some tools related to semantic web technology: |
| 9 | * [http://www.bioinformatics.org/rdfscape/wiki/Main/HomePage RDFScape Plugin] - Plugin supports for reasoning on ontologies. Also supports query/result visualization. |
| 10 | * BioPAX Reader - simply read and convert basic information stored in BioPAX level 2. |
| 11 | And there are some issues: |
| 12 | * RDFScape is a bit hard to use for average users (biologists). Need to refactor user interface. |
| 13 | * Typing SPARQL query is powerful for hardcore users, but too difficult for biologists. |
| 14 | * After Cytoscape reads BioPAX data, no semantics are used. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | === Potential Projects for Hackathon === |
| 17 | * Re-design RDFScape UI |
| 18 | * User-friendly Query Builder |
| 19 | * Automatic data import - load selected set of ontologies automatically |
| 20 | * Internal data management - how should Cytoscape store semantics from BioPAX data files? |
| 21 | * Merge networks/attributes automatically using semantics |
