title: Towards chronological summary of medical records.
abstract: We developed a semantic tool (MedinfoParser) that provides a chronological summary from medical records. It consists of a Korean parser, an English parser, a numeric detector, and a noun phrase detector. It provides Part-Of-Speech (POS) tags, and extracts medical concepts and numeric concepts. In order to identify medical terms we developed a module for connecting UMLS knowledge server. A rule parser and rule patterns were also designed for the numeric term detection.
