Large biomedical abstract databases such as MEDLINE enable users to search for large
bodies of biomedical knowledge quickly. In this study, we describe a new framework to …

In this paper, we propose terminology indexing and reweighting methods considering the
characteristics of biomedical documents. For the terminology indexing, we first recognize …

A large amount of medical information is currently becoming from many sources, such us
journals, books, databases and lately the World Wide Web (WWW). Users of the medical …

Background The growth of the biomedical information requires most information retrieval
systems to provide short and specific answers in response to complex user queries …

BACKGROUND: As the volume of biomedical text increases exponentially, automatic
indexing becomes increasingly important. However, existing approaches do not distinguish …

There are several problems regarding information retrieval on biomedical information. The
common methods for information retrieval tend to fall short when searching in this domain …

Efficiently finding most relevant publications in large corpora is an important research topic
in information retrieval. The number of biological literatures grows exponentially in various …

The overwhelming amount of published literature in the biomedical domain and the growing
number of collaborations across scientific disciplines results in an increasing topical …

In this paper, we explore the use of term relations in information retrieval for precision-
focused biomedical literature search. A relation is defined as a pair of two terms which are …

In this thesis we investigate the possibility to integrate domain-specific knowledge into
biomedical information retrieval (IR). Recent decades have shown a fast growing interest in …
