Fig. 2 Vocabularies for annotating the food-to-health continuum. Schematic of proposed workflows using ontology classes to associate component concentration with independent concepts of nutritional attribute and dietary role. In data curation, each assignment requires identification of supporting evidence. Adoption of common vocabularies in diverse data repositories would facilitate data mining and inference. The FoodOn organismal source (olive solid circle) is used to filter available datasets, alongside the nutritional component terms (green solid circle). The structured vocabulary and definitions within the "nutritional functional attribute" class (pink solid circle) and the "human dietary role" class (orange solid circle) will then be available to represent concepts associated with one or more nutritional components, where a domain specialist has identified sufficient supporting evidence. These terms may be mapped and reused from existing OBO ontologies, such as the Experimental Factor Ontology (EFO), the Human Phenotype Ontology (HP), the Ontology for Biomedical Investigations (OBI), and the Ontology of Biological Attributes (OBA).
