The LIDC Markup Conversion to AIM is a work in progress. We have reached initial agreement regarding how to map certain elements in LIDC annotation to AIM, which is documented in attached document LIDCAIMMapping_AIM_010609.doc. The first round of manual mapping of LIDC annotation to AIM is done and the questions and issues generated in this exercise are documented in another attached document IssuesAndQuestionsFromManualMapping.ppt.
LIDC schema files, annotated LIDC annotation file, LIDC annotation document and most recent version of AIM schema are also included in the attachments.
