  • Semantic Query Modeling, Context, Section Detection, and Match Score Maximization
    DutchHatTrick: Semantic query modeling, ConText, section detection, and match score maximization. Martijn Schuemie* Dolf Trieschnigg† Edgar Meij‡ ErasmusMC University of Twente University of Amsterdam [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Introduction This report discusses the collaborative work of the ErasmusMC, University of Twente, and the University of Amsterdam on the TREC 2011 Medical track. Here, the task is to retrieve patient visits from the University of Pittsburgh NLP Repository for 35 topics. The repository consists of 101,711 patient reports, and a patient visit was recorded in one or more reports. Because the training set provided by the track organization was small and not made available until quite late in the competition, we decided to create a small training set ourselves. Not only did this allow us to test several ideas before submitting runs to TREC, it also led to several insights into the data. One finding was that synonyms are widely used. Query expansion was therefore deemed essential to achieve a reasonable performance. Query expansion has been used before in Information Retrieval (IR), and is often divided into statistical and knowledge-based query expansion. Statistical query expansion uses data derived from the corpus itself, and a well-known example is pseudo-relevance feedback [1]. In contrast, we investigated knowledge-based query expansion, which uses a knowledge base such as an ontology or a dictionary to find related terms. This type of query expansion has not always proven to be successful. For instance, Hersh et al. [2] found a decrease in overall search performance when using the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) [3] to find related terms.
