Yurufuwa-Search is a new function of Ichushi-Web that uses a machine-learning search engine. When a sentence is entered and searched, documents with a high degree of similarity are presented as search results. It is effective when it is difficult to select search keywords in a specific field or theme. This paper introduces overview of Yurufuwa-Search and its usage.
The Department of NBDC Program, Japan Science and Technology Agency provides three services: Integbio Database Catalog, Life Science Database Archive, and Life Science Database Cross Search. These are services for selecting, depositing into, and content searching life science databases. Databases are expected to become more and more important in coming years due to the remarkable development of machine learning and the trend of open science. Through these services, NBDC promotes database maintenance and utilization.
The department of NBDC Program, Japan Science and Technology Agency is promoting activities aimed at maximizing the value of data and contributing to data-driven science through the integration of data and databases. As part of these activities, we have established the NBDC Human Database as a framework for integrating and widely sharing data collected through research in the life science and medical fields and data from various analyses using specimens, in collaboration with the Bioinformation and DDBJ Center, the National Institute of Genetics (DDBJ Center). In addition, TogoVar is being constructed as a database to integrate the data registered and published in the NBDC Human Database and to publish them as frequencies.
