Abstract
We organize a three hours tutorial about bio-ontologies and OWL-DL during the DILS’2008 conference.
The first part will present the motivations for using ontologies in the context of bioinformatics. Likewise, it will present the reference ontologies of the domain (Gene Ontology, BioPAX, ...) and their typical use (e.g. Gene Ontology Annotation).
The second part will be more hands-on oriented and will focus on the basic principles for creating a simple ontology. We will cover the creation of subclasses and of relations. At the time of the break, we will have demonstrated the expressivity of RDFS.
