Knowledge mining
Knowledge mining:Producing high-level insight by mining primary results in the context of existing knowledge.
Integration of detailed findings with (publicly available) domain knowledge
Knowledge sources annotations: GO, KEGG, … basic details: genomic location, … interaction networks detailed pathways: Wikipathways literature: MEDLINE
