Coordinated parallel views for the exploratory analysis of microarray time-course data. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Craig, P., Kennedy, J., & Cumming, A. (2005, July). Coordinated parallel views for the exploratory analysis of microarray time-course data. Presented at Third International Conference on Coordinated & Multiple Views in Exploratory Visualization

Microarray time-course data relate to the recorded activity of thousands of genes, in parallel, over multiple discrete points in time during a biological process. Existing techniques that attempt to support the exploratory analysis of this data rely... Read More about Coordinated parallel views for the exploratory analysis of microarray time-course data..

Ontology-Driven Automated Generation of Data Entry Interfaces to Databases (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cannon, A., Kennedy, J. B., Paterson, T., & Watson, M. F. (2004, July). Ontology-Driven Automated Generation of Data Entry Interfaces to Databases. Presented at Key Technologies for Data Management (Proc. BNCOD21): Lecture Notes in Computer Science 3112, Edinburgh, Scotland

This paper discusses an ontology based approach for the automatic generation of data entry interfaces to databases. An existing domain ontology is mapped to a system domain model, which a domain expert can then specialise using their domain expertise...

Exploring and examining assessment data via a matrix visualisation (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graham, M., & Kennedy, J. (2004, May). Exploring and examining assessment data via a matrix visualisation. Presented at Proceedings of the working conference on Advanced visual interfaces - AVI '04, Gallipoli, Italy

OPAL (Online PArtner Lens) is an application designed to match project requirements with suitable teams and individuals, and as part of its matching process features an evaluation mechanism designed to elicit measures of trust between potential partn...

Approaches to Storing and Querying Structural Information in Botanical Specimen Descriptions. (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Paterson, T., & Kennedy, J. (2004, July). Approaches to Storing and Querying Structural Information in Botanical Specimen Descriptions. Presented at 21st Annual British National Conference on Databases (BNCOD21)

We are developing an ontology as a defined terminology for the taxonomic description of botanical specimens. To allow these descriptions to unambiguously refer to a given plant structure, the ontology specifies compositional relationships between ana...

A universal character model and ontology of defined terms for taxonomic description. (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Paterson, T., Kennedy, J., Pullan, M. R., Cannon, A., Armstrong, K. E., Watson, M. F., Raguenaud, C., McDonald, S. M., & Russell, G. (2004, March). A universal character model and ontology of defined terms for taxonomic description. Presented at Data Integration in the Life Sciences. First International Workshop, DILS 2004

Taxonomists classify biological specimens into groups (taxa) on the basis of similarities between their observed features (characters). The description of these characters is therefore central to taxonomy, but there is currently no agreed model, defi...

A methodology for composing well-defined character descriptions. (2003)
Report
Paterson, T., Cannon, A., Raguenaud, C., Russell, G., Armstrong, K. E., MacDonald, S. M., Pullan, M. R., Watson, M. F., & Kennedy, J. (2003). A methodology for composing well-defined character descriptions

Taxonomy has been described as “the science of documenting biodiversity”, which involves collecting, naming, describing, identifying and classifying specimens of organisms (Keogh, 1995). Descriptions are the fundamental information units used in the... Read More about A methodology for composing well-defined character descriptions..

Coordinated graph and scatter-plot views for the visual exploration of microarray time-series data (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Craig, P., & Kennedy, J. (2003, October). Coordinated graph and scatter-plot views for the visual exploration of microarray time-series data. Presented at IEEE Symposium on Information Visualization 2003 (IEEE Cat. No.03TH8714), Seattle WA

Microarrays are a relatively new, high-throughput data acquisition technology for investigating biological phenomena at the micro-level. The product of microarray experiments is large-scale time-series data, which subject to proper analysis has the p...

Using curves to enhance parallel coordinate visualisations (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graham, M., & Kennedy, J. (2003, July). Using curves to enhance parallel coordinate visualisations. Presented at Seventh International Conference on Information Visualization, 2003. IV 2003., London, UK

This paper introduces a number of refinements to the Parallel Coordinates visualisation metaphor for multi-dimensional data. Firstly, the traditional set of poly-lines are replaced with a collection of smooth curves across the attribute axes, allowin...

Supporting taxonomic names in cell and molecular biology databases (2003)
Journal Article
Kennedy, J. (2003). Supporting taxonomic names in cell and molecular biology databases. OMICS, 7(1), 13-16. https://doi.org/10.1089/153623103322006508

Groups of organisms require labels or names to refer to them; however, the idea of a single static name index, although tempting for its simplicity, is both impractical and unadvisable as a basis for referring to organisms for which data has been col...

Teallach — a flexible user-interface development environment for object database applications (2003)
Journal Article
Barclay, P. J., Griffiths, T., McKirdy, J., Kennedy, J., Cooper, R., Paton, N. W., & Gray, P. (2003). Teallach — a flexible user-interface development environment for object database applications. Journal of Visual Languages and Computing, 14(1), 47-77. https://doi.org/10.1016/s1045-926x%2802%2900056-3

The Teallach project has adapted model-based user-interface development techniques to the systematic creation of user-interfaces for object-oriented database applications. Model-based approaches aim to provide designers with a more principled approac... Read More about Teallach — a flexible user-interface development environment for object database applications.
