OK, DNA! is an intuitive conversational interface designed to assist biologists and clinicians, who generally have little computer science expertise, in retrieving data from genomic databases. Through this novel technology, complex bioinformatics queries are abstracted to a dialogue interface, that does not require any specific knowledge on querying languages. The power of OK, DNA! is that it exploits the conversation with two goals - as a guide to assist biologists and clinicians during the creation of the entire search process, and as a natural language interface to formulate queries on multiple heterogeneous genomic datasets.

Abstract
OK, DNA! is an intuitive conversational interface designed to assist biologists and clinicians, who generally have little computer science expertise, in retrieving data from genomic databases. Through this novel technology, complex bioinformatics queries are abstracted to a dialogue interface, that does not require any specific knowledge on querying languages. The power of OK, DNA! is that it exploits the conversation with two goals - as a guide to assist biologists and clinicians during the creation of the entire search process, and as a natural language interface to formulate queries on multiple heterogeneous genomic datasets.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
