Release notes : https://github.com/Fraunhofer-ITMP/PEMT/releases
PEMT takes a two-step approach to collect patent documents relevant for drug discovery.
- The
chemical_extractor
module extraction of chemicals that directly regulate (i.e. activation or inhibition) genes of interest based on functional or biochemical assays found within ChEMBL. - The
patent_extractor
module interlinking these chemicals to patent documents by systematically querying SureChEMBL, a patent database.
PEMT is a patent extractor tool that enables users to retrieve patents relevant to drug discovery. The framework is depicted in the graphic below
