From: Chen, Pei [mailto:pei.c...@childrens.harvard.edu] Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2014 2:55 PM To: dev@ctakes.apache.org Subject: ctakes-dictionary-lookup-fast Hi, The original plan was to update AggregatePlaintextUMLSProcessor.xml to use the new ultrafast dictionary lookup in the upcoming 3.2.1 release. However, the output is slightly different the old cTAKES dictionary where it no longer has a SNOMED/RXNORM consumer (Returns CUI's only and doesn't post process map back to the SNOMED/RXNORM codes.) This can certainly be done again, but I am not sure how many people are dependent on the AggregatePlaintextUMLSProcessor.xml to consider this a patch release. Some Options/Ideas: 1) Create a AggreatePlaintextUMLSFastProcessor.xml which defaults to dictionary-lookup-fast. But doesn't return the codes for now. We replace the default pipeline when SNOMED/RXNORM codes are returned again. 2) Push forward with defaulting to the new dictionary-lookup-fast in AggregatePlaintextUMLSProcessor.xml Example output of dictionary-lookup-fast: [cid:image001.png@01CFF9D9.E5D2CA50]
