BioNLP is an initiative by the Center for Computational Pharmacology at the University of Colorado Denver Health Sciences Center to create and distribute code, software, and data for applying natural language processing techniques to biomedical texts. There are many projects associated with BioNLP.

Projects

Parentheses Classifier: a classifier for the content of parenthesized text

Simple Semantic Classifier: a text classifier for OBO domains

BioLemmatizer: a biomedical literature specific lemmatizer.

Knowtator: a Protege plug-in for text annotation.

MutationFinder: an information extraction system for extracting descriptions of point mutations from free text.

OpenDMAP: an ontology-driven, rule-based concept analysis and information extraction system

BioNLP-Corpora: a repository of biologically and linguistically annotated corpora and biomedical datasets. This project includes

• Colorado Richly Annotated Full-Text Corpus (CRAFT)
• PICorpus
• GeneHomonym
• Annotation Projects
• MEDLINE Mining projects
• Anaphora Corpus
• TestSuite Corpora

BioNLP-UIMA: Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA) components geared towards the use and evaluation of tools for biomedical natural langauge processing, including tools for our own OpenDMAP and MutationFinder use.

OboAnalyzer: an analysis tool to detect OBO ontology terms that use different linguistic conventions for expressing similar semantics.
