Engineering Polymer Informatics: Towards the Computer‐Aided Design of Polymers
No full textAbstract The computer‐aided design of polymers is one of the holy grails of modern chemical informatics and of significant interest for a number of communities in polymer science. This paper outlines a vision for the in silico design of polymers and presents an information model based on modern semantic web technologies, thus laying the foundations for achieving the vision. magnified imag
Mining chemical information from open patents.
No full textLinked Open Data presents an opportunity to vastly improve the quality of science in all fields by increasing the availability and usability of the data upon which it is based. In the chemical field, there is a huge amount of information available in the published literature, the vast majority of which is not available in machine-understandable formats. PatentEye, a prototype system for the extraction and semantification of chemical reactions from the patent literature has been implemented and is discussed. A total of 4444 reactions were extracted from 667 patent documents that comprised 10 weeks' worth of publications from the European Patent Office (EPO), with a precision of 78% and recall of 64% with regards to determining the identity and amount of reactants employed and an accuracy of 92% with regards to product identification. NMR spectra reported as product characterisation data are additionally captured

Sources of resistance to yellow rust and stem rust in wheat-alien introgressions
No full textWheat is the staple food and the main source of caloric intake in most developing countries, and thereby an important source in order to maintain food security for the growing populations in those countries. Stem rust Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, and yellow rust P. striiformis f. sp. tritici of wheat continues to cause severe damage locally and globally, thereby contributing to food insecurity. In this paper biology and taxonomy of stem rust and yellow rust, breeding for resistance, utilization of resistance sources from different gene pools, molecular characterization and genetic dissection of resistance to rusts are discussed
CMLLite: a design philosophy for CML
No full textCMLLite is a collection of definitions and processes which provide strong and flexible validation for a document in Chemical Markup Language (CML). It consists of an updated CML schema (schema3), conventions specifying rules in both human and machine-understandable forms and a validator available both online and offline to check conformance. This article explores the rationale behind the changes which have been made to the schema, explains how conventions interact and how they are designed, formulated, implemented and tested, and gives an overview of the validation service
Simulation data: Experiments in Globalisation, Food Security and Land Use Decision Making
No full textThis zip file contains all simulation data produced for the publication
Calum Brown, Dave Murray-Rust, Jasper van Vliet, Shah Jamal Alam, Peter H Verburg, Mark D Rounsevell (2014) Experiments in globalisation, food security and land use decision making.
Once unzipped, the folder has the following structure: every sub-experiment (regionalisation) of the 19 experiments described in the text has its own folder. Within each, 30 simulations of each sub-experiment has a further folder and within each of these, csv files give the coordinates of modelled cells, capital values for each cell, agent type owning each cell, the individual agent's competitiveness on that cell, and the quantities of services produced. There is one csv file for each timestep of the simulation. All analyses in the above publication were based on this data. For any enquiries, please contact Calum Brown: [email protected]
Provenance Composition in PROV
No full textWhen two communicating processes each record their own provenance,what extra information needs to be recorded in order that a satisfactoryaccount can be given, of the combined process? We propose a setof requirements on (i) the kind of information that the processes can shareand (ii) the kind of queries that should be answerable from the combinedprovenance graph. We describe a solution using PROV
