SeqWiki "biological domains" map to EDAM "Topic", SeqWiki "bioinformatics methods" map to EDAM "Operation".

EDAM_1.0.obo

The first release proper.

General changes

  • New style for concept IDs: 4 digit number, subontology namespace / subset("operation", "topic" etc) e.g. "EDAM_operation:0004" (new style) instead of "EDAM:0000004" (old style).

  • New relations ("has function", "is function of") are defined for use by annotators (they are not used in EDAM itself).

  • Synonyms are defined that define related or relevant concepts in many other ontologies and systems. Synonyms are added throughout but especially on top-level concepts ("Operation", "Data", "Format" and "Topic") and relations ("has input", "is input of", "has output", "is output of", "has topic", "is topic of", "has format", "is format of", "has function", "is function of").

  • New concept attributes and modifiers have been added, most importantly:

"{note}" for comments on synonyms and other attributes, e.g. synonym: "assembly" NARROW [SO:0001248] {note="Perhaps surprisingly, the definition of 'SO:assembly' is narrower than the 'SO:sequence\_assembly'."}.

"{since}" for annotation of version information, e.g. data of creation or obsoletion of a concept id: id: EDAM\_data:3165 {since=1.0} or is\_obsolete: true {since=1.0}.

"Format" branch

  • 10 new formats.

EDAM_beta13.obo

General changes

  • "Identifier" branch moved from top-level to beneath "Data". The "identifier" namespace / definitions have been kept!
  • Extensive revision of "Data", "Operation" and "Topic" branches to reduce clutter and ease navigation.
  • Bottom-up clean up removing terms that are too fine-grained. Top-down clean up to add or remove terms to aid navigation.
  • has_topic (defined on "Data" and "Operation") replaces in_topic.
  • Duplicated relationships (child terms erroneously restating the inherited relationships of their parents) have been removed.

"Data" branch

  • All "Data" concepts now organised into 4 sub-concepts:
  • "Core data" - Data that typically are the primary input or output of a tool or which correspond to entries from the primary (e.g. sequence or structural) biological databases.
  • "Identifier" - A short numerical or textual label that identifies (typically uniquely) something such as data, a resource or a biological entity.
  • "Parameter" - Typically a simple numerical or string value that controls the operation of a tool.
  • "Report" - A human-readable collection of information that is distinct from primary (e.g. sequence or structural) biological data, including free text, annotation about biological entities and phenomena, computer-generated reports of analysis of primary data and metadata.
  • "Report" concepts for sequences correspond better (without duplicating) established sequence feature keys.

"Operation" branch

  • Fewer concepts, simpler is_a hierarchy
  • "has_input" and "has_input" relations defined (on nearly all terms)

"Format" branch

  • "is_format_of" relations defined (for nearly all terms)

"Topic" branch

  • Improved term names and is_a hierarchy, reflecting whether topics concern a type of data, operation or are more general.
  • New "Biological data resources" sub-branch includes common data resource concepts.
  • Major revision! Too much to mention, so take a look :)
