NaCTeM selected to present at Precision Medicine session at TREC 2017
2017-10-17
We are pleased to announce that members of NaCTeM have been selected to present at the TREC Precision Medicine / Clinical Decision track, which will take place in Gaithersburg, Maryland on 17th November 2017. They will talk about their submission, based on the use of a biomedical semantic search engine called Thalia (Text mining for Highlighting, Aggregating and Linking Information in Articles), which has been developed at NaCTeM. The main purpose of Thalia is to enable semantic search in the context of biomedical literature by leveraging previous named entity (NE) annotation efforts, and to apply it to different use cases.
