Knowledge Representations and Inference Techniques for Medical Question Answering
2017
ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology
In this article, we examine the representation and role of combining medical knowledge automatically derived from (a) clinical practice and (b) research findings for inferring answers to medical questions ...
Answering medical questions related to complex medical cases, as required in modern Clinical Decision Support (CDS) systems, imposes (1) access to vast medical knowledge and (2) sophisticated inference ...
Thus, we believed that by focusing on medical knowledge representations and experimenting with inference methods operating on them, we could not only find the optimal knowledge representations and inference ...

Epistemic Structured Representation for Legal Transcript Analysis
[chapter]
2008
Advances in Computer and Information Sciences and Engineering
In this paper, a process for transforming the semistructured representation of the digital transcript to an epistemic structured representation that supports semantic and inferencebased search is explored ...
However, the search techniques employed are still largely restricted to keyword search and various probabilistic association techniques. ...
For instance, question and answer pairs are conveniently coded as: Q. Was Oren in fact a medical doctor? A. Yes, he's a surgeon, doctor. ...
