Furrer, Lenz; Küker, Susanne; Berezowski, John; Posthaus, Horst; Vial, Flavie; Rinaldi, Fabio (2015). Constructing a Syndromic Terminology Resource for Veterinary Text Mining.

Abstract

Public health surveillance systems rely on the automated monitoring of large amounts of text. While building a text mining system for veterinary syndromic surveillance, we exploit automatic and semi-automatic methods for terminology construction at different stages. Our approaches include term extraction from free-text, grouping of term variants based on string similarity, and linking to an existing medical ontology.
