Over recent years, there has been a growing interest in extracting information automatically or semi‐automatically from the scientific literature. This paper describes a novel ontology‐based interactive information extraction (OBIIE) framework and a specific OBIIE system. We describe how this system enables life scientists to make ad hoc queries similar to using a standard search engine, but where the results are obtained in a database format similar to a pre‐programmed information extraction engine. We present a case study in which the system was evaluated for extracting co‐factors from EMBASE and MEDLINE. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
