  1. SemanticMining:Major Events July - December 2005

  2. Workshop on Foundations of Clinical Terminologies and Classifications • Location: Timişoara, Romania, April 8, 2006 • Collocation: EFMI Special Topic Conference • Endorsement: EFMI, GMDS, SemanticMining • Local Organizer: George Mihalas • Scientific Chairs: Stefan Schulz, Jeremy Rogers. SPC to be defined • Invited Speakers: Olivier Bodenreider, N.N. • Submission Deadline: Jan 15 • Bursaries by Semantic Mining

  3. WP 20: Research Activity Multilingual Medical Dictionary

  4. WP20 Partners contributing to activities in 2005 Jul-Dec • UKLFR Freiburg University Hospital Medical Informatics • JENA University of Jena Computational Linguistics • LIU IMT Linköping Univ. Medical Informatics • LIU IDA Linköping Univ. Computer Science • UGOT Göteborg University • SU Sahlgrenska Hospital Göteborg • DIM Geneva Univ. Hospital Med. Informatics • OU Open University • INSERM Paris, Med. Informatics

  5. Revised Subtasks of WP20 • Development and Implementation of Lexical Acquisition Methodologies • Population of Medical Subword Lexicon • Specification and Acquisition of Multilingual Lexical Resources • Specification and Acquisition of Multilingual Corpora

  6. WP 20 achievements • Milestone 4 reached: interchange format for a multi-lingual medical dictionary, multi-lingual medical dictionary in at least five languages with more than 20,000 entries • WP20 workshop in September (Paris) • Specification of Common Link Format • Ongoing enhancement of the MorphoSaurus Lexicon • Enhancement of the MorphoEditWeb lexicon editor • Use of standardized IR performance measurements in order to assess the progress in the lexicon • Research on subword cognate aquisition. • Ongoing feasibility studies and prototypical implementations in collaboration with German partners (industry, government) • Implementation of corpus exchange guideline

  7. WP 20 achievements (continued) • Use of NLG techniques for the automated generation of Procedure description out of a formalized procedure ontology • Automatic annotation of medical corpus with morphosyntactic and semantic information. • Restructuring of LEXIN lexicon (20,000 entries) into a medically-oriented resource • Compound decomposition, named entity recognition, and acronym decomposition for Swedish • Adaptation of ITools for French terminology extraction • Continuation of preparation of parallel French-English medical corpus • Semi-automatic enrichment of French subword lexicon by exploiting existing subword lexicons in other languages

  8. WP 20 Cross-WP activities • WP 21 and WP 26. Use of Morphosaurus indexing for content retrieval in EHR archetype descriptions. • WP21: Joint proposal on biomedical processes within biomedical ontologies • WP22 translation of SNOMED CT into Swedish • WP22 use of SNOMED Microglossary for a bilingual English-Russian lexicon • WP24 Elaboration of a white paper on token and sentence segmentation • WP23 (planned): Acquisition of Multilingual Terms from Lab Medicine

  9. WP20 Strategic Planning • Using the common interchange and link formats, multilingual linking/merging of lexicons plus semantic classes from subword lexicons • Corpora pool as new deliverable for 2006 • Extension of the parallel corpora alignment for new language pairs • Ongoing population and cleansing of subword lexicons, extension of the corpus-based validation of subword lexicons to new language pairs • Cross-validation of lexicons (e.g. removing duplicates) • IR studies with new language pairs • Experimental addition of Italian and Russian to the subword lexicon using automated • Workshop at LREC (accepted) • Tutorial at MIE
