ABSTRACT
Temporal information is especially crucial in medical text processing. The simple temporal constraint satisfaction problem (STP) has been evaluated as sufficient to represent most English clinical temporal assertions. We aimed to test expressive power of STP in representing Korean clinical documents and to find out any encoding issues dependent on Korean language. This paper shows that STP is sufficient. Some distinctive characteristics were found but they did not affect the encoding work.

Extracting meaning from temporal nouns and temporal prepositions
Special Issue on Temporal Information ProcessingThis article provides a compositional semantics for temporal nouns and temporal prepositions that are annotated as temporal prepositional phrases or noun phrases by an automatic tagging system (e.g., last Monday, on Dec. 1st, for three weeks or before ...
Automatic TIMEX2 tagging of Korean news
Special Issue on Temporal Information ProcessingThis article reports on a temporal tagger for Korean based on a Korean extension of the TIDES TIMEX2 guidelines. The extension, which primarily addresses the idiosyncrasies of Korean morphology, shows high inter-annotator reliability (0.893 F-measure ...
Combining automatic acquisition of knowledge with machine learning approaches for multilingual temporal recognition and normalization
This paper presents an improvement in the temporal expression (TE) recognition phase of a knowledge based system at a multilingual level. For this purpose, the combination of different approaches applied to the recognition of temporal expressions are ...
