We just released a new version of the OwlExporter ontology population plugin for GATE. The OwlExporter PR can be added to any NLP pipeline to facilitate the population of an existing OWL ontology with entities detected in the corpus. It supports the population of separate NLP- and domain-ontologies and has support for some advanced features, like the export of coreference chains.

In this release, we included a pre-compiled binary and a complete example pipeline that transforms GATE's ANNIE information extraction example into an ontology population system. We also completely revamped the documentation and website to make it more accessible to ontology population novices.

In the Open Mutation Miner (OMM) project we investigate the combination of NLP, ontologies, and bioinformatics tools for the extraction and analysis of mutations and their impacts from the bibliome.
