Automatically Expanding the Synonym Set of Snomed Ct Using Wikipedia - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2015, written by Daniel R. Schlegel, Chris Crowner and Peter L. Elkin.
Overview
Clinical terminologies and ontologies are often used in natural language processing/understanding tasks as a method for semantically tagging text. One ontology commonly used for this task is SNOMED CT. Natural language is rich and varied: many different combinations of words may be used to express the same idea. It is therefore essential that ontologies and terminologies have a rich set of synonyms. One source of synonyms is Wikipedia. Authors examine methods for aligning concepts in SNOMED CT with articles in Wikipedia so that newly-found synonyms may be added to SNOMED CT. Authors experiments show promising results and provide guidance to researchers who wish to use Wikipedia for similar tasks.
