A tool for enhancing MetaMap performance when annotating clinical guideline documents with UMLS concepts

We developed a tool that integrates the National Library of Medicine's MetaMap software with GATE, an open-source text an- alytics framework. The tool allows non-ASCII encoded documents of numerous formats to be annotated with UMLS concepts. We created a GATE pipeline to chunk cardiovascular disease guideline text into default segments (blank-line delimited), XML element content, sentences and phrases, which were sequentially submitted to MetaMap for annotation. XML element, sentence and phrase chunking allowed term extraction and mapping to be completed in around 1/3 of the time taken with de- fault chunking, although with slight loss of accuracy (F1.0s=0.94-0.99). However, phrase chunking allows more complex input to be processed in real time, which is not possible with the other approaches. We discuss the results in relation to use of MetaMap's --term processing option for generating pre- and post-coordinated mappings from composite phrases

The processing of fish and other marine resources

The preservation of freshness in fish (commonly referred to as fish handling) and the conversion of fresh fish into other products can both be considered as methods of processing. In commercial practice, however, the term "processing" is confined to the conversion of fresh fish into other products

The Sketch of a Polymorphic Symphony

In previous work, we have introduced functional strategies, that is, first-class generic functions that can traverse into terms of any type while mixing uniform and type-specific behaviour. In the present paper, we give a detailed description of one particular Haskell-based model of functional strategies. This model is characterised as follows. Firstly, we employ first-class polymorphism as a form of second-order polymorphism as for the mere types of functional strategies. Secondly, we use an encoding scheme of run-time type case for mixing uniform and type-specific behaviour. Thirdly, we base all traversal on a fundamental combinator for folding over constructor applications. Using this model, we capture common strategic traversal schemes in a highly parameterised style. We study two original forms of parameterisation. Firstly, we design parameters for the specific control-flow, data-flow and traversal characteristics of more concrete traversal schemes. Secondly, we use overloading to postpone commitment to a specific type scheme of traversal. The resulting portfolio of traversal schemes can be regarded as a challenging benchmark for setups for typed generic programming. The way we develop the model and the suite of traversal schemes, it becomes clear that parameterised + typed strategic programming is best viewed as a potent combination of certain bits of parametric, intensional, polytypic, and ad-hoc polymorphism

A Specification Language for Performance and Economical Analysis of Short Term Data Intensive Energy Management Services

Requirements of Energy Management Services include short and long term processing of data in a massively interconnected scenario. The complexity and variety of short term applications needs methodologies that allow designers to reason about the models taking into account functional and non-functional requirements. In this paper we present a component based specification language for building trustworthy continuous dataflow applications. Component behaviour is defined by Petri Nets in order to translate to the methodology all the advantages derived from a mathematically based executable model to support analysis, verification, simulation and performance evaluation. The paper illustrates how to model and reason with specifications of advanced dataflow abstractions such as smart grids
