We have developed a semantic tool (MedinfoParser) for the information extraction of medical documents. The main role of the parser is to parse medical sentences and extract key information. It puts Part-of-Speech (POS) tags and conceptual tags for the extraction. The parser consists of a Korean parser, an English parser, a numeric detector, and a noun phrase detector. For the semantic extraction, it gets conceptual id from the UMLS knowledge server.
