Abstract

Method and system for managing and evaluating life science data. Life Science data is placed in a knowledge base, that may be used for a variety of analysis tasks. Creating a knowledge base from the life science data involves generating two or more nodes indicative of life science data, assigning to one or more pairs of nodes a representation descriptor that corresponds to a relationship between the nodes, and assembling the nodes and the relationship descriptor into a database, such that at least one of the nodes is joined to another node by a representation descriptor. In some embodiments, the representation descriptor includes a case frame that describes the relationships between elements of life science data.
