Medication information extraction with linguistic pattern matching and semantic rules
OBJECTIVE This study presents a system developed for the 2009 i2b2 Challenge in Natural Language Processing for Clinical Data, whose aim was to automatically extract certain information about medications used by a patient from his/her medical report. The aim was to extract the following information for each medication: name, dosage, mode/route, frequency, duration and reason. DESIGN The syste...
متن کاملLearning Semantic Information Extraction Rules from News
Due to the increasing amount of data provided by news sources and the user-specific information needs, recently, many news personalization systems have been proposed both in industry and academia. Often, these systems process news data automatically into information, while relying on underlying knowledge bases, containing concepts and their relations for specific domains. Keeping these knowledg...
متن کاملCascading Use of Soft and Hard Matching Pattern Rules for Weakly Supervised Information Extraction
Current rule induction techniques based on hard matching (i.e., strict slot-by-slot matching) tend to fare poorly in extracting information from natural language texts, which often exhibit great variations. The reason is that hard matching techniques result in relatively high precision but low recall. To tackle this problem, we take advantage of the newly proposed soft pattern rules which offer...
متن کاملLinguistic and semantic annotation for information extraction and characterization
The 2010 I2B2 NLP challenge concentrated on extraction of three types of information from clinical records: medical concepts, their certainty status and relations between them. For participation in this challenge, we designed an automatic NLP system exploiting terminological resources and a rule-based approach. An attemp was also made to apply knowledge engineering methods. Our system provides ...
متن کاملQualitative pattern matching with linguistic terms
In the setting of possibility theory, a tool named ‘fuzzy pattern matching’ (FPM) has been proposed in the eighties, and then successfully used in flexible querying of fuzzy databases and in classification. Given a pattern representing a request expressed in terms of fuzzy sets, and a database containing imprecise or fuzzy attribute values, the FPM returns two matching degrees. Namely, for each...
