Goals

  • Encourage the broad use of DeepPhe tools and models, while maintaining openness and attribution.
  • Comply with resource sharing plan as submitted to NIH. See, for example [ITCR policies](http://itcr.nci.nih.gov/about-itcr)

Distinction

We are reading "software" as referring to executable components, while "models" refers to the OWL data models developed for representation of cancer phenotypes.

Licensing of Software

  • cTAKES is licensed under the Apache Source License 2.0
  • DeepPhe cTAKES components will be similarly licensed
  • Other DeepPhe components will be licensed by some open source license, potentially (but not necessarily) the Apache license.

Licensing of Other Models

DeepPhe Ontology Models

  • DeepPhe Ontology models will be licensed using CC-BY 4.0
  • This is consistent with plans to use CC-BY 4.0 to license the schema ontology upon which the DeepPhe model is based.
