This paper surveys the work carried out within two large consortia, AMI and IM2, on improving access to records of human meetings thanks to multimodal interfaces called meeting browsers. These tools help users navigate through multimedia records containing audio, video, documents and metadata, in order to obtain a general idea about what happened in a meeting or to find specific pieces of infor...

This document is part of a family of documents that describe the DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC). The DNS Security Extensions are a collection of new resource records and protocol modifications that add data origin authentication and data integrity to the DNS. This document describes the DNSSEC protocol modifications. This document defines the concept of a signed zone, along with the requireme...

This paper describes the development of a prototype system to answer questions by selecting sentences from the documents in which the answers occur. After parsing each sentence in these documents, databases are constructed by extracting relational triples from the parse output. The triples consist of discourse entities, semantic relations, and the governing words to which the entities are bound...

This thesis examines if and how information capture and documentation practices and the function of the public archive are changing in relation to archival concepts in contemporary administrative settings, as a result of e-government strategic development. The study aims for a holistic approach from the beginning of the life of the records to their long-term preservation. This research is situa...

Technology is the tool that is being used in the various sectors of life and medical is one of them. Electronic medical records (EMR) are now widely used instead of physical documents. This paper aims to achieve continuing challenges of MedNLP task series in NTCIR-10 and 11. In these tasks, it already attempted named entity recognition (NER) and evaluated the term normalization technology from ...

This project addresses extraction of medical concepts relationship in scientific documents, medical records and general information on the Internet, in several languages by using advanced Natural Language Processing and Information Retrieval techniques and tools. The project aims to show, through two use cases, the benefits of the application of language technology in the health sector.

The first and original use of metadata is for describing documents. XML, the Dublin Core and MARC library catalog records are examples. The name “metadata” (beyond or with data) and the popular definition “data about data” is based on this use. A second use of metadata is to form organizing structures by means of which documents can be arranged. These structures can be used both to search for i...

Historical documents contain facts that family history enthusiasts are interested in extracting. In addition to fact extraction, organizing these facts into disambiguated entity records is also of interest. This paper shows how facts from an excerpt of a page in an OCRed book can be gathered automatically with some expert knowledge.

The Australian e-Health Research Centre and Queensland University of Technology recently participated in the TREC 2011 Medical Records Track. This paper reports on our methods, results and experience using a concept-based information retrieval approach. Our concept-based approach is intended to overcome specific challenges we identify in searching medical records. Queries and documents are tran...
