A Combined Resource of Biomedical Terminology and its Statistics

چکیده
In this paper, we present a large biomedical term resource automatically compiled from the terminology of a selection of biomedical databases. The resource has a very simple and intuitive format and therefore can be easily embedded into a system for biomedical text mining and used as a linguistic resource. It is continuously updated and a user interface makes it possible to compile a new term resource according to individual requirements by selecting specific databases to be included. We present statistics for each included biomedical entity type separately as well as in the context of the combined terminology.

A Large Scale Terminology Resource For Biomedical Text Processing
In this paper we discuss the design, implementation, and use of Termino, a large scale terminological resource for text processing. Dealing with terminology is a difficult but unavoidable task for language processing applications, such as Information Extraction in technical domains. Complex, heterogeneous information must be stored about large numbers of terms. At the same time term recognition...
متن کاملSimple Weighting Techniques for Query Expansion in Biomedical Document Retrieval
In this paper, we propose two weighting techniques to improve performances of query expansion in biomedical document retrieval, especially when a short biomedical term in a query is expanded with its synonymous multi-word terms. When a query contains synonymous terms of different lengths, a traditional IR model highly ranks a document containing a longer terminology because a longer terminology...

Herewith as the simple of analysis is studied aerospace terminology in Russian language. The main ways of term formation are divided into four groups: synthetic way, adoption, semantic metaphorization, analytic way. Each way and the nuances of its analysis are explained in detai...
متن کاملTerminology Indexing and Reweighting methods for Biomedical Text Retrieval
In this paper, we propose terminology indexing and reweighting methods considering the characteristics of biomedical documents. For the terminology indexing, we first recognize biomedical terms, and generate multiple keywords in the term so that the system can perform a flexible matching between a query and documents. For the term reweighting, we devise a method of normalizing the weights of qu...
