Multi-lingual Features of the Unified Medical Language System
نویسنده
چکیده
The Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) is a terminology integration system developed and maintained by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM). Over the past 20 years, the UMLS Metathesaurus has been extended to encompass 168 source vocabularies. While English is the dominant language (116 source vocabularies), 52 vocabularies in the Metathesaurus are in languages other than English (6 in Dutch, German and Spanish ; 5 in French ; 4 in Italian and Portuguese ; 2 in Czech, Finnish, Hungarian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian and Swedish ; and 1 in Basque, Croatian, Danish, Hebrew, Latvian, Polish and Russian).

The integration of transit information from multiple agencies is a major challenge in implementation of multi-modal passenger information systems. The problem of information sharing is further compounded by the multi-l...
متن کاملCross-Lingual Medical Information Retrieval through Semantic Annotation
We present a framework for concept-based, cross-lingual information retrieval (CLIR) in the medical domain, which is under development in the MUCHMORE project. Our approach is based on using the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) as the primary source of semantic data, whereby documents and queries are annotated with multiple layers of linguistic information. Linguistic processing includes ...
متن کاملApproaching Multi-Lingual Emotion Recognition from Speech - On Language Dependency of Acoustic/Prosodic Features for Anger Recognition
In this paper, we describe experiments on automatic Emotion Recognition using comparable speech corpora collected from real-life American English and German Interactive Voice Response systems. We compute the optimal set of acoustic and prosodic features for mono-, crossand multi-lingual anger recognition, and analyze the differences. When an emotion recognition system is confronted with a langu...

متن کاملApproaching Multi-Lingual Emotion Recognition from Speech - On Language Dependency of Acoustic/Prosodic Features for Anger Detection
This paper reports on monoand cross-lingual performance of different acoustic and/or prosodic features. We analyze the way to define an optimal set of features when building a multilingual emotion classification system, i.e. a system that can handle more than a single input language. Due to our findings that cross-lingual emotion recognition suffers from low recognition rates we analyze our fea...
