Data_Sheet_1_Representing Normal and Abnormal Physiology as Routes of Flow in ApiNATOMY.XLSX

We present (i) the ApiNATOMY workflow to build knowledge models of biological connectivity, as well as (ii) the ApiNATOMY TOO map, a topological scaffold to organize and visually inspect these connectivity models in the context of a canonical architecture of body compartments. In this work, we outline the implementation of ApiNATOMY’s knowledge representation in the context of a large-scale effort, SPARC, to map the autonomic nervous system. Within SPARC, the ApiNATOMY modeling effort has generated the SCKAN knowledge graph that combines connectivity models and TOO map. This knowledge graph models flow routes for a number of normal and disease scenarios in physiology. Calculations over SCKAN to infer routes are being leveraged to classify, navigate and search for semantically-linked metadata of multimodal experimental datasets for a number of cross-scale, cross-disciplinary projects.
