Subject indexing via annotation in the GENIE project

Posted March 4th, 2005

Title:Subject indexing via annotation in the GENIE project
Presenters:Nancy Green
Where:Manning Hall room 208
When:Friday, March 4th 2005, 12 noon
Presentation:Not available
Nancy Green: As for the talk, my goal is to give an overview of an annotation scheme for clinical genetics documents that I developed for the GenIE project. I was thinking that it may be of interest to the Digital Libraries group since it is a kind of subject indexing though not in the traditional sense. So, I planned to give an overview of the goals of the GenIE project, and describe how this kind of Bayesian network-based annotation scheme compares to a thesaurus or semantic network based approach. (attached is a copy of the journal paper on which the talk will be based.)

Special Note: Nancy is interested in talking with people at UNC. She will be here for a visit Friday afternoon (4th). There will be a general open discussion immediately following her talk, as well as potential time slots for individual or small group discussions with her. If you’re interested please email me (bmh@ils.unc.edu) to make arrangements.
