Biomedical Abbreviation Recognition and Resolution(English)

• aims to assess and promote the development of systems for generating a sense inventory of medical abbreviations. Acronyms (=short forms) are widely encountered in clinical reports. This is true even for cases of highly ambiguous short forms that could potentially have many different senses. Clinical short forms, as a result of their underlying semantic complexity, are problematic. Correct interpretation of short forms is not only difficult for patients, but often represent a challenge even for medical professionals and health documentation experts
