Abstract:
Interpretation of syndrome differentiation is a necessary topic for the research on intelligent syndrome differentiation. The syndrome differentiation system of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is huge, with diverse and interrelated interpretations, and non-standardized linguistic expressions, while detailed interpretations involve complex basic theories and literature of TCM, resulting in a challenging organization of the system. From the perspective of text mining, this article analyzed the limitations of existing intelligent syndrome differentiation research, clarified the importance and necessity of constructing a syndrome differentiation interpretation system, and proposed the idea of constructing an interpretation system including conceptual system, logical system, evaluation system, and visualization presentation. Future research can continue to refine the structure, logical and semantic relationships, as well as evaluation methods of the interpretation system based on this ideas, present concrete examples, and build the interpretation corpus by utilizing various data sources such as textbooks, medical records, medical discourse, and papers, to provide technicians with standard reference and data support for TCM syndrome differentiation interpretation.
