This methodology involves the semantic annotation of keywords and the postulation of semantic metrics to improve the efficiency of the path exploration algorithm as well as to rank the results. Results indicate that our methodology can discover groups of experts from diverse areas who can collaborate on translational research projects. %B Stud Health Technol Inform %V 216 %P 1071 %8 2015 %G ENG %1 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26262370?dopt=Abstract
