Jiyuan He, Centrum Wiskunde En, Maarten De Rijke, Merlijn Sevenster · 2011
Automatically annotating texts with background information has recently received much attention. In this note, we outline a case study in automatically generating links from narrative radiology re-ports to Wikipedia. Such links are meant to help users understand the medical terminology and thereby increase the value of the re-ports. We discuss our findings throughout this study and the open questions left to be explored. In particular, we discuss potential extensions to the general medical domain. 1.
