Record of last meeting
Update on bringing Vaishali into synchronization for the project

Dictionary assigned - ????

Priorities:Each intern will have particular responsibility for:

a dictionary
a exploration / project

DICTIONARY Most of you will have a nearly correct dictionary, but it will need cleaning and updating. The tasks include:

checking title of dictionary is the same as filename (else it will fail)
for each entry:

checking that Wikipedia links are present
checking Wikidata links
checking that term is a useful noun of phrase Much of this can be done automatically

PROJECT This project is primarily to test the software. DO NOT ASSUME THE RESULTS ARE MORE GENERALLY USEFUL (i.e. don't tell the world you have made a medical breakthrough - we don't have enough data or knowledge.) The project consists of:

creating a query, running it, and refining the query iteratively.
downloading up to 1000 articles (your CProject)
searching them with 3-6 dictionaries for co-occurrence
manually evaluating how useful co-occurrence is
refining dictionaries
repeat

Key Points

Dictionary assigned to Vaishali- 'funders'
Discussion on INYAS and interns who will be joining us.
Review of the individual tasks, Interns to come up with their own dictionaries and projects.
Dictionaries:

Creating your own dictionary and provide answers to "How many entries does your dictionary have?" "Where was it created from?" Each Intern should have AUTHORITY for their dictionary. For eg: country - ISO
However, one issue we all may face is SYNONYMS, each term in the dictionary has potential for synonyms such as UK/ England/ Democratic Republic of Great Britain. Wikidata may solve this issue.
All the dictionaries to be placed here https://github.com/petermr/openVirus/tree/master/dictionaries Everyone to create your dictionary folder in it. ( One folder per dictionary lower case names)
"Why are we creating dictionaries?" FAQ taken up by Vaishali. "How can we update the dictionaries"? FAQ by Ambreen. You can edit these in the FAQ page.

Projects

Each intern to think and decide of a project which relates to viral epidemics for your use. (Personal interest) https://github.com/petermr/openVirus/tree/master/miniproject for example: face masks in viral epidemics, drugs used in viral epidemics, vaccines and viral epidemics, organizations and funders in viral epidemics, timeline of usage of dictionary terms in scholpub (cf Google trends).
Create a new dictionary for your project
To create your project, you will need indexing, information retrieval and information extraction
Indexes to be used solr lucene ami

Next tasks:

Create your dictionary folders in the link given above.
Download and mechanically upload your search query results. You can create, read, update, delete and tidy up your dictionaries.
Decide a particular project you would like to work on.

Record of last meeting
KARYA students
Priorities:

Scientific Strategy.
General principles for what we hope to do. Systematic reviews, Discovery of hidden knowledge.
Projects. Formalize titles and project owners
Technology . amidict, SPARQL
Machine Learning.

Key Points

Discussion on KARYA students affiliated to DST Rajasthan who will be joining us from the next week. Each intern will be assigned for one student and both of you will be working on the project. 2 interns from there will be working for long term. 5 interns from Indian National Young Academy Scientists. We are taking 5 students, for 1 month and each intern will mentor one. The disciplines range over physics, chemistry, maths, bioscience.
Scientific strategy discussion over "Why we are doing these Projects?" To build an organised system using technological tools in order to create informative site related to Viral Epidemics.
Systematic review- It is an action that brings research papers together and look for common words and phrases to present a systematic review of our search. Done using ami

4. Formalizing the Project-

Each project should have a scientific target. It must involve technology development.

5. How will you work on the project?

Creating a spreadsheet would be the first thing to begin with.
Mostly, manual work is involved and we would be starting with limited number of papers i.e; 50. You have to be able to go through all the papers, look for what word or phrase (must not be a false positive) you are trying to find, and produce your search results.
This can be made easier by SECTIONING your search as each paper contains an introduction, methods followed by conclusion.
Decide the tools which you will need. (An exercise for machine learning)

6. AIM- The aim is to come up with an appropriate project plan to achieve its target. Following are the targets for our interns:

AMBREEN: Determine the role of country in viral epidemics.
PRIYA: Which diseases co-occur in viral epidemics? (Whether the viral spread causes other diseases as well. Example: Spanish flu 1919 caused number of bacterial infections too. )
RAJAN: Which drugs are regularly used for treating viral epidemics? Particularly what drugs are used to treat symptoms, and not the virus.
VAISHALI: What funders are the most active in funding research during viral epidemics? The papers contains a particular section about its funding.
KAREENA: Which viruses are reported as being involved to cause viral epidemics? Not all viruses cause a pandemic or an epidemic. To find out which viruses can cause or have caused an epidemic.
All projects have an element of machine classification ("learning") and natural language processing (NLP). The main uses are: is this paper really/mainly about viral epidemics?, does your concept (above) co-occur in the same sentence as the virus/disease - i.e. is it tightly coupled? For example is "India" related to "virus in India" or is it unrelated (e.g. the reagent came from an Indian supplier?)
The main packages will be: ami for sectioning in CProjects and dictionary searching, KNIME for workflow and analytical tools, R for workflow and analytical tools, Keras for machine learning, Jupyter for logging and reusable scripts

7. PROJECT PROPOSAL

Each intern should come up with half a page project proposal on what you plan to do on your project. It should be believable and compact mentioning your strategies and goals. Prepare your own queries, plans and mention the tools which you might require. Basically, how you plan to work in order to achieve your target.
This project proposal will be presented to the fellow KARYA students so that they can choose what they would like to work on and with who.

8. What are tools which we are going to use in these projects?

Firstly we are going to create a COMMUNAL PROJECT CORPUS related to viral epidemics called the epidemic5050 papers on viral epidemics that allow us to test our software and ideas. Everyone will use this to get trained on software, and all software should be able to use it. There will be false positives in it and also problem files.Later we have to analyse it independently and come up with our own corpus.
ami based tools for retrieving documents and parts of documents
ami sectioning
beta testing
Then, we would need WORKFLOWS. Something like "workflows-->ami-->commandline(CLI)-->KNIME-->GUI"
Each of you should install and try KNIME an alternate for amibut consists of more tools to work with. Contact the Expert- Clyde.
ENTITY EXTRACTION : finding particular words or phrases in papers, done using ami or KNIME
Natural Language Processing (NLP) but with few aspects it has.
R : Contains tools for summarizing things
Jupyter
Keras
Excel
SPARQL

Create a Wiki page for each of these technologies for simplification on Github. (installation and usage)

10. Steps to do the project:

RETRIEVAL of papers
BINARY CLASSIFICATION
SECTIONING
IDENTIFY & EXTRACT your information

11. Prepare the following:

Spreadsheets
Data Displays for scoping review ( Histogram, Timeline, Pie charts etc )

12. NEXT TASKS:

Go to the TIGR2ESS tutorial on SPARQL & WikiData - an easy way to create dictionaries.
Create your project proposal for the volunteers.
Get up to speed with Binary classification using Python/Keras, KNIME and R. Create a wiki page for Binary Classification.

3. Common exercise given to all the interns (to be done individually):

Analyse the 50 papers on viral epidemics given here https://github.com/petermr/openVirus/tree/master/miniproject/epidemic50noCov
Create your own spreadsheet in csv format using Excel and extract valuable information from each papers. Tutorial given by PMR using screen sharing during the meet.
About each paper, create question for analyzing such as "Is the paper about Viral Epidemics?", "Does mention the country where the epidemic took place?", "Does it talk about the drugs used?", "Does it mentions the diseases which co-occur?", "Does it involve other viruses?", "Does it talk about the funders?"
These spredsheets will be key for comparing results with others. Assess without dictionaries.
Create queries such as "Does the paper contain annotations (features)?" Features include diagrams, pictures or images.
Mention human blind annotations: (A) Viral epidemics - yes/no (B) 1 to 7 features present - yes/no (C) Metadata- year of publication (D) Type of paper- research article/abstract/review

3. Review of 50 papers

discussion about false positives
BLIND assessment of papers
Types of papers we all came across- Scientific article/ Abstract only/ Review paper/ Case study, clinical trial or others.
For the miniproject, get 1000 papers , develop a classification scheme to divide papers into categories, so that people can know.

4. CLASSIFICATION:

For doing Binary classification , we have to split the data set into- "training" , "testing" and "validation"
Find a tool like KNIME or Keras
Test your classifier and the improve your algorithm
Perform the classification for features (words, data, diagrams)

Review of each intern's miniproject- goals, strategies, progress, queries.

6. Review of each intern's dictionary:

Create a dictionary of your miniproject.
create a communal dictionary (builtin)
Each dictionary should have "find ability" , "comprehensiveness" , "syntax" , "maintenance" , "documentation"
Dictionaries can be created using 3 options: copy from authority (such as ISO for country), copy from wikidata, SPARQL, using list of terms.
Dictionaries can be found as: inbuilt, contentmine dictionary.
Every dictionary should have wiki page (total 8) documented the by intern about about how they created it.

7. SECTIONING:

run by ami section (automatic) works on PMC papers. It converts JATS-ami->sections
3 sections of paper- front (bibliography, abstract, journal, title, author, DOI), body (intro, background, methods, experimental, discussion), back (funders, admin, ethics, references, citations, acknowledgment)
ami search annotates body. we need to use a new approach called 'xpath' - a way of navigating sections in a paper, eg: front/article/title

HACKATHON over slack #coordination
Review of all miniprojects and progress made by mentors and their mentees

Summary

each INYAS student and their mentor should discuss how to create a single page , in Markdown, for Thursday which reports the work to their classmates. The INYAS student should create this but ask for help whenever they need it. It can address:
what is the aim of the miniproject?
what resources are you using (don't just give a list; try to write something they would understand).
what has been done so far (again in terms they would understand)
mentors now each have a miniproject and a dictionary (possibly two). These should all have the same format and be organized in a consistent directory structure. Work between yourselves to ensure this (i.e. look at each others' miniprojects and dictionaries).
