My Work on Extension
I implemented the automated tagging
extension, but others came up with the idea
and contributed to the design, including Bill
Barnett, Michael Grobe and Anurag
Shankar.

Automated Tagging Extension
Goal. Support automated tagging of Indiana
CTSI (Clinical and Translational Sciences
Institute) Hub (http://indianactsi.org) pages
using the NCBO (National Center for
Biomedical Ontology) Annotator
Motivation. Tagging (assigning terms from a
controlled vocabulary/ontology to pages) can
be very helpful for site search and navigation,
but manual tagging is expensive.

NCBO Annotator
A web site that includes web services for
annotating text using various controlled
vocabularies and ontologies, such as
SNOMED and MeSH (Medical Subject
Headings).

NCBO Annotator Example
Text:
“Gene therapy vectors based on murine retroviruses
have now been in clinical trials for over 20 years. During
that time, a variety of novel vector pseudotypes were
developed in an effort to improve gene transfer.”
Ontology: MeSH
Terms/Tags:
Genes Gene Therapy Retroviridae
therapy Time
Transfer (Psychology)

Extension Overview
• The Indiana CTSI HUB was built using HUBzero
(http://hubzero.org), which was built on top of the
Joomla content management system.
• Extension works with Joomla (version 1.5) as well as
HUBzero
• Extension consists of:
o Plugin – conditionally tags pages when they are
accessed, and displays the tags on pages
o Component – provides user interface for search
and navigation and administrative interface for
configuration

Extension Overview (continued)
• User interface (front-end)
o Information/help page
o Multi-word auto-complete tag search
o Tag cloud
o Tag information page
• Admin interface (back-end)
o Configuration of extension

Tags on Pages
The
extension
adds tags
to the
bottom of
pages
(using a
plugin).

Information/Help Page
You can create
an article that
users will be
directed to
when they click
on the “What’s
this?” link.

Tag Search
You can
select the
ontology to
use for the
search.
Auto-completion is provided for search terms.

Tag Cloud
The size of a
term is
proportional to
the number of
pages that are
tagged with it

Tag Information Page
The Tag Info
page lists
the pages
that contain
the specified
tag.

Joomla
admin
interface

Extension Configuration
After the
component is
installed, the
component’s
admin interface is
used to configuring
the component

Component Configuration - Steps
1. Get and enter an NCBO API key
2. Download ontology information from
NCBO
3. Select the ontologies to use and a
primary/default ontology
4. Set tagging options
5. Turn tagging on

Conclusions
Pros
•Automatically tags pages
•Will work on all pages (not component-dependent)
•Works with Joomla as well as HUBzero
Cons
•Tagging dependent on NCBO annotator:
o Does not seem to be very intelligent
o Too slow to have real-time tagging
o Extension will break if NCBO changes their web services
o Limited to biomedical ontologies
It’s possible to change the extension’s annotator, so this extension
could be used as a basis for using or testing other annotators.
