Q2Semantic: A Lightweight Keyword Interface to Semantic Search (2008)

Haofen Wang, Kang Zhang, Qiaoling Liu, Thanh Tran, Yong Yu

Abstract. The increasing amount of data on the Semantic Web offers opportunities for semantic search. However, formal query hinders the casual users in expressing their information need as they might...

Rules for an Ontologybased Approach to Adaptation (2006)

Thanh Tran, Anupriya Ankolekar

Adaptation addresses the complexity and overload caused by an increasing amount of available resources by the identification and presentation of relevant resources. Drawbacks of existing approaches...

TBC1D1 is a candidate for a severe obesity gene and evidence for a gene/gene interaction in obesity predisposition (2006)

Stone, Steven, Abkevich, Victor, Russell, Deanna L., Riley, Robyn, Timms, Kirsten, Tran, Thanh, ...

The molecular etiology of obesity predisposition is largely unknown. Here, we present evidence that genetic variation in TBC1D1 confers risk for severe obesity in females. We identified a coding...
