The following tools offer schemas and terminologies that can help make sense of data from disparate sources:
-
BXH/XCEDE Tools – A suite of tools designed to read, write and manipulate XML descriptors using the BXH or XCEDE schemas. This tool is REQUIRED for many other FBIRN tools.
-
NeuroLex – NeuroLex is built from a core OWL ontology, originally built from BIRNLex, in a modular fashion, with separate modules covering major domains of neuroscience: anatomy, cell, subcellular, molecule, function and dysfunction.
-
XML-Based Clinical Experiment Data Exchange Schema (XCEDE) – Provides an extensive metadata hierarchy for describing and documenting research and clinical studies.
