MeSHy, a Web-based Biotext Mining Tool for Unanticipated Knowledge Discovery
MeSHy was developed implementing a mainly statistical algorithm. The algorithm searches PubMed for documents relevant to a user’s query and ranks the pairs of their MeSH terms promoting unusual occurrences. The first in rank MeSH term pairs (and therefore the corresponding documents) more often than...
