Abstract:
The national basic science and technology projects (No.2012FY130100) help us design and use the method of automatic extraction of TCM term synonyms based on pattern recognition. This method included 6 steps: preparing the dictionaries, compiling extraction programs, extracting synonyms based on the pattern rules, auditing the results, merging synonyms and evaluating the effectiveness. Statistical data showed that the accuracy of synonym extraction by this method was about 94％, and the recall rate was about 94.5％. Therefore, the automatic synonym extraction of TCM terms based on pattern recognition could improve the efficiency of synonym extraction.
