Title: | Semi-automatic Enrichment of Lexical and Terminological Resources in the Medical Domain |
Date: | 16 February 2007 |
Location: | MIB building, LG0.10 |
Abstract: | The medical domain is characterized by a rich terminology. Capturing
this terminology, with its variants and relations, provides a key asset
for medical language and information processing. While English
medical terms are extensively represented and linked in the UMLS Metathesaurus®,
the terminological resources available to researchers or to applications
in other languages are much more limited. A similar situation
holds for lexical resources. This situation motivated work
in our group on acquiring lexical and terminological resources for French
medical language.
Some of this work was performed within projects UMLF (lexicon) and VUMeF (terminology), while I was at Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris and at Inserm U729. |
