Presentation at Chemical Information track to highlight links to other online data sources
San Francisco - SureChem Senior Vice President Nicko Goncharoff will be presenting at the American Chemistry Society's Fall 2008 conference. The talk will discuss SureChem's scalable, validated system for extracting chemical names from very large collections of documents, converting those names to chemical structures and presenting them to users as a text and structure-searchable database. This will include a review of methodology, validation results and technical challenges.
The talk points to the SureChem Portal as a production application of this process, which enables access to a structure searchable database of more than 9 million full-text patent documents from the US, Europe, World Intellectual Property Organization and Japan. The talk will further examine ways to apply this approach to journal article and in-house text collections.
