UMass at BioASQ 2014: Figure-inspired Text Retrieval.
Jesse M Lingeman, Laura Dietz · 2014
Abstract. Building on our experience with retrieval of figures, figure summarization with sentences from text, we study the utility of figure-based features and techniques for text retrieval. Figure based approaches are compared to approaches using abstracts instead of figures. We also explore two different relevance models: one built using the Unified Med-ical Language System (UMLS) and one built using Wikipedia. We conduct several experiments exploring different feature combinations using a model built with the TREC Genomics track for submission to the 2014 BioASQ competition. 1
