  • GAPSCORE: finding gene and protein names one word at a time.

    Chang JT, Schütze H, Altman RB. Bioinformatics. 2004; 20 (2): 216-25

    New high-throughput technologies have accelerated the accumulation of knowledge about genes and proteins. However, much knowledge is still stored as written natural language text. Therefore, we have developed a new method, GAPSCORE, to identify gene and protein names in text. GAPSCORE scores words based on a statistical model of gene names that quantifies their appearance, morphology and context.
