Abstract

Abstract : The amount of medical text data is increasing dramatically. Medical text data record the progress of medicine and imply a large amount of medical knowledge. As a natural language, they are characterized by semistructured, high-dimensional, high data volume semantics and cannot participate in arithmetic operations. Therefore, how to extract useful knowledge or information from the total available data is very important task. Using various techniques of data mining can extract valuable knowledge or information from data. In the current study, we reviewed different approaches to apply for medical text data mining. The advantages and shortcomings for each technique compared to different processes of medical text data were analyzed. We also explored the applications of algorithms for providing insights to the users and enabling them to use the resources for the specific challenges in medical text data. Further, the main challenges in medical text data mining were discussed. Findings of this paper are benefit for helping the researchers to choose the reasonable techniques for mining medical text data and presenting the main challenges to them in medical text data mining.
