Towards a Logic-based Assessment of the compatibility of UMLS sources

چکیده
The UMLS Metathesaurus (UMLS-Meta) is currently the most comprehensive effort for integrating independently-developed medical thesauri and ontologies. The techniques used in the construction of UMLS-Meta are mostly based on lexical matching and often disregard the semantics of the sources being integrated. In this paper we aim at developing logic-based techniques to automatically detect and fix potential errors in UMLS-Meta. Our research is currently at an early stage, so we only present here our preliminary ideas and experimental results.
