  • Value Sets
    • Would like LexEVS to support production of value sets with more rich structure. (to more efficiently assemble this deliverable)
    • 100K downloads from FTP site.  Fewer users use the browser to download the value sets.  
  • Mapping
    • On a mapping page, you can download an excel or cvs file.  
    • ie, chebi has mapping.  
    • For GDC - ICD9 or 10 coding - to be able to use NCIT coding, there needs to be way to translate between ICD9 and NCIT codes.  There currently isn't a good way to do that today.  
      • ie ICD9 - Brest cancer - corresponds to ABC in NCIT
      • Determine how such a map could be published (browser and LexEVS)
  • Other Services
    • IUPAC - there are 2 flavors to be considered - but can be managed.
    • HUGO - the slash and hyphens have been problematic, but have been mostly resolved in the NCI Browser.
    • Review of 4 identified searching issues (differences between results in LexEVS and Protege).
    • NGram tokenizers may provide solution if we implement an Expert System.

Decision Points:

  • Revisit the mapping discussion during a future project meeting.
  • Consider and prioritize the expert system solution.
  • Review the usage of NGrams in Lucene.

LexEVS Mapping Discussion

Determine requirements and propose solution for mapping.

  • User requirement: One terminology to many terminologies mapping.
  • Other topics:  Current, conditional, external relationships
