Abstract

In this paper, we describe ongoing work (in the framework of the project BioMiRe) in automatic detection of gene and protein names in biomedical texts. The approach adopted here is one based on robust linguistic analysis of these texts. The first part will show the specific problems encountered in the corpora, from the lexical and syntactic points of view. Then we will describe how the tools we use for linguistic processing perform our task. The problem of evaluation will then be addressed and our first results will be given. Finally, we will sketch how we intend to continue the work.
