Session 1: Addressing cancer big data challenges through imaging ontologies

Tuesday, May 12 in FISHERS LANE CONFERENCE CENTER, 5635 Fisher Lane, Rockville, MD 20852

10:00 Warren Kibbe (NCI): Introductory Remarks

10:10 Barry Smith (Buffalo): The cancer research ontology space: An introduction Slides

The goal of the meeting: to better understand the challenges involved in using big data for cancer research, and to explore the utility of ontologies in addressing these challenges.
An introduction to existing ontology resources in the cancer domain, including NCI Thesaurus and the OBO Foundry; addressing opportunities and reasons for scepticism as concerns the use of ontologies in addressing cancer big data; topics to address will include the ontology of tissues, of tissue banks, and of image banks
What are the desired outcomes from this meeting?

10:50 Ilya Goldberg (NIA): The role of imaging ontologies in cancer big data Slides

As image data accumulates descriptive metadata using controlled vocabularies (ontologies), two key applications form a key "Big Data" technology that will impact cancer research and medicine as a whole:
1. semantic search, which allows image retrieval independently of image content, for example, retrieval of images spanning different imaging modalities and scales.
2. automated annotation, which addresses the scaling problem in associating metadata with ever larger image collections by using ontological terms as categories and the images carrying them as sample data to train machine classifiers.

11:30 Break 11:45 John Tomaszewski (University at Buffalo) and Metin Gurcan (Ohio State): ​How ontologies can help in addressing the big data challenges of pathology imaging: perspectives from a collaborating pathologist and image scientist Tomaszewski Slides Gurcan Slides

Widespread availability of whole slide scanners has a transformative effect on pathology, resulting in data that is "big” not only in terms of size but also in richness of information. Computational algorithms have been developed to tap into this data both to assist pathologists and to improve diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. Now, however, there is an urgent need to provide a set of terms and formal definitions necessary to characterize both the histopathological images and the algorithms that operate on them. We will present in this light our on-going work to create an ontology for histopathological imaging.
Goals:

1. Describe the transformative role of digital pathology

2. Explain the big data challenges in clinical research and computational algorithms

3. Outline how ontologies can provide solutions to address the big data challenges of pathology imaging

13:00 Lunch

Session 2: Addressing cancer big data challenges by capturing metadata for data integration and analysis through ontologies

13:45 Christopher R. Kinsinger (NCI): Ontology Considerations for Cancer Proteomics Slides

NCI’s Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) conducts proteomic and genomic analysis on clinical tissue samples. While CPTAC has utilized controlled vocabularies for biospecimen resources, development and adoption of ontology tools for rapidly advancing technologies such as proteomics and genomics remains a challenge.

14:15 Anna Maria Masci (Duke): Understanding the tumor microenvironment: integration of multiscale cancer data Slides

Tumor biology can be fully understood by considering the tumor as part of an ecosystem that includes tumor cells, stromal cells, matrix, fluids and gas. Real Time PCR, Tissue Micro Arrays, Plasma data and ontology are approaches used to describe the complex tumor ecology.

14:45 Jingshan Huang (South Alabama): The OMIT ontology Slides

The purpose of constructing OMIT is to establish data exchange standards and common data elements in miR and microgenomics domain. Cell biologists and bioinformaticians can make use of OMIT to leverage emerging semantic technologies in knowledge acquisition and discovery for more effective identification of important roles performed by miRs in human diseases including cancer.

15:15 Break

15:30 Chris Stoeckert (Penn): Integration and alignment of ontologies for cancer metadata collection based on the Ontology for Biomedical Investigations (OBI) Slides

Cancer research is multidisciplinary and requires standard terminology from multiple domains. OBI and interoperable OBO Foundry ontologies can be used for collecting and integrating clinical and -omic metadata relevant to cancer data. The Ontology for Biobanking is an example based on OBI.

16:00 Gully Burns (ISI/ USC): Leveraging OBI to cancer pathways via Knowledge Engineering from Experimental Design (KEfED) Slides

Our biomedical knowledge about cancer pathways is derived piecemeal from small-scale experiments in studies of molecular biology. A single study may consist of as many as thirty individual experiments to test small aspects of the underlying hypothesis of a paper. Typically 'pathway databases' interpret and summarize this information as model constructs that describe signaling events with little or no reference to the originating data that acts as evidence for the pathway constructs. As a part of the RUBICON project within the 'Big Mechanisms' DARPA program, I describe our work to model of the underlying design of molecular biology experiments as part of a text mining approach under development across the Big Mechanisms program called 'reading against a model'. This application serves as a valuable method within which OBI terminology and structure is providing essential structure and support.
