Abstract

We show how term extraction methods such as AMTE X and MMT X can be used for the automatic categorisation of medical documents by user profile (novice users and experts). This is achieved by mapping document terms to external lexical resources such as WordNet, and MeSH (the medical thesaurus of NLM).
