AUTOMATED DATA PROCESSING OF MEDICAL LANGUAGE

该项目的主要目标是制定方法， 用于自然医学语言的自动处理。 这 涉及语法分析算法的开发， 表示自然文本和创建计算机词典 以及其他医学专业数据库， 病理 医学语言学的研究继续发展， 高阶谓词演算的约束定理证明器 与关联/蕴涵逻辑相关的假设，作为一个 用于在基于中心特征的语法形式主义中进行解析的工具。 继续在临床信息实用程序方面与 病理学实验室，NCI/DCBD/LP，并与DCRT/DMB，在 使用LSM的自动编码系统来维护和改进 临床中心手术病理报告数据库。 从文字处理器到临床中心MIS的过渡， 制作外科病理报告的工作已接近完成。 继续开发词典环境软件， 以更低的速度。 这是为了提供医疗 词典编纂者和医学语言研究者， 用于检查数据和测试假设的综合工具， 以及构建的语义和句法特征 医学词典

The major objective of the project is the development of methods for the automatic processing of natural medical language. This involves both development of algorithms for parsing and representing natural text, and creation of computer dictionaries and other data bases for medical specialties such as surgical pathology. Research in medical linguistics continued on the development of a theorem prover for a higher order predicate calculus, constrained by assumptions associated with relevance/entailment logic, as a vehicle for parsing in a head-feature based grammar formalism. Collaboration continued on the Clinical Information Utility with the Laboratory of Pathology, NCI/DCBD/LP, and with DCRT/DMB, in using LSM's automatic encoding system to maintain and improve the data base of Clinical Center surgical pathology reports. Transition from word processors to the Clinical Center MIS for producing the surgical pathology reports is near completion. Development of the Lexicographic Environment Software continued but at a reduced pace. This is designed to provide medical lexicographers and medical language researchers with a comprehensive tool for examining data and testing hypotheses, as well as for constructing both semantic and syntactic features of medical dictionaries.
