Project MAVIN: Increasing Curation & Product Value by Incorporating NLU
FY 2021-22 · 2021-08-01
Summary
This will be an extension of our previous IRAP grant (2019-2020) which involved building our internal AI NLU tool (called Mavin).
In this project, we will focus on enhancing Mavin with greater predictive and insight-generation capability as well as building the bridge between Mavin and human-powered curation. To accomplish this, Mavin will be tightly integrated into our Knowledge Core (the knowledge graph powering existing products). This integration will occur at the data level, normalizing and linking evidence to human decisions, as well as through intuitive interfaces our curators will use to assess Mavin predictions. Lastly, we will validate and develop a Mavin-powered commercial product, delivered to customers through our DrugBank API

Description (French)
Il s'agira d'une extension de notre précédente subvention du PARI (2019-2020), qui portait sur la fabrication de notre outil d'IA NLU interne (appelé Mavin). Dans le cadre de ce projet, nous mettrons l'accent sur le perfectionnement de Mavin en lui conférant une plus grande capacité de prévisions et de génération d'informations, ainsi que sur la création d'un lien entre Mavin et la curation manuelle. Pour ce faire, Mavin sera étroitement intégré à notre Knowledge Core (le graphe de connaissances qui alimente les produits existants). Cette intégration se fera au niveau des données, en normalisant et en reliant les données aux décisions humaines, ainsi qu'au moyen d'interfaces intuitives que nos conservateurs utiliseront pour évaluer les prévisions de Mavin. Enfin, nous validerons et mettrons au point un produit commercial alimenté par Mavin, livré aux clients par le biais de notre API DrugBank.
