BioASQ challenge on large-scale biomedical semantic indexing and
question answering
(part of the CLEF 2014 QA track to take place in Sheffield, UK, 15-18
September, 2014)

(biomedical semantic QA) will take place in a few days!

If you are interested in any of the following areas:

* Question answering from unstructured and structured data
* Single and multi-document summarization
* Information retrieval and passage retrieval
* Semantic indexing, semantic similarity and reasoning
* Machine learning, classification, learning to rank
* Named-entity recognition and disambiguation 
* Information extraction, fact checking, relation extraction 
* Textual entailment
* Natural-language generation 

then you may want to participate in BioASQ Task 2b. 
More information at http://bioasq.org/participate/challenges#Task2b.

Important dates:
You can join task 2b on ANY of the following dates:
  - March 05, 2014

  - April 02, 2014
  - April 16, 2014
  - April 30, 2014.

Additionally, we would like to remind you that BioASQ task 2a
(large-scale biomedical semantic indexing) is running a new test every
week.

If you are interested in any of the following areas: 

* Large-scale and hierarchical classification
* Machine learning 
* Semantic Indexing, semantic similarity 

then you may want to participate in BioASQ Task 2a.
