Extracción de contextos definitorios en el área de biomedicina

In this project we formulate a methodology for extracting definitional contexts from corpus of biomedicine in Spanish, in order to generate the following products: (i) a list of candidate terms, (ii) a list of candidates for definitions, and (iii) a taxonomy of biomedical terms relationships based on hyponym/hyperonym. Our methodology allows the creation of a system capable of extracting such contexts, which can be seen as a module that would cover the first steps to follow to build an ontology based on textual information.
