Abstract

This paper describes SPMED, a system for robust and accurate linguistic parsing of medical documents which is used in several industrial products. The basic design criterion of the system is of providing a set of basic powerful, robust, and generic linguistic knowledge sources and modules which can easily customized for processing different tasks in a flexible manner. The main application is seen in linguistic analysis of medical documents, yet the technology is easily applicable to other domains.
