BICAN Knowledgebase Data Models

This repo contains data models generated using LinkML for BICAN knowledgebase. LinkML is a linked data modeling language that supports YAML, RDF, and JSON.

In /linkml-schema, there are linkML yaml schema files that adhere to the linkML version of 1.5.0.

  • The Library Generation Model is designed to represent types and relationships of samples and digital data assets generated during processes that generate multimodal genomic data.
  • The Genome Annotation Model is designed to represent types and relationships of an organism's annotated genome i.e. gene annotations, genome annotations, genome assemblies, organisms.
  • The Anatomical Strucutre Model is designed to represent types and relationships of anatomical brain structures.
  • The existing models such as Biolink and CCN are imported.

In /json-schema and /models_py, there are json and py files generated using linkML schema for e.g.:

  • gen-json-schema linkml-schema/genome_annotation.yaml > json-schema/genome_annotation.json
  • gen-pydantic linkml-schema/genome_annotation.yaml > models_py/genome_annotation.py

In /data-examples, there are source data files:

Notes: Initialize the packages using:

  • python -m pip install .
  • python -m pip install .[test]

Run pytest to run all tests in /tests
