Copy right transfer text mining tool Peregrine
16 Feb 2012
On January 19th Erasmus MC and the NBIC BioAssist Engineering Team signed the copy right papers for the software tool Peregrine. This way Erasmus MC is again the full 'owner' of the text mining tool.
Jan Kors (EMC, Rotterdam) and his team developed the original tool, which was engineered by Rob Hooft and his BioAssist Engineering Team in order to improve the reach of the tool. The copy rights of the revised version of Peregrine were given (back) to Erasmus MC under the condition that the Peregrine tool would be available as an open source tool. After the open source release of the Peregrine text mining software at the end of 2011, it was therefore time for a festive copyright transfer session at the EMC in Rotterdam.
Peregrine can be found at https://trac.nbic.nl/data-mining/ and downloaded under an AGPL license.
