Hi Liam,

associatedSignSymptom has not been implemented yet.

More details of the relation extraction module are in

I hope this helps you.

Kindest regards,

Subject: Re: Extract relation among entities in cTAKES [EXTERNAL]

After experimenting with cTAKES RelationExtraction, I managed to get it 
working. It turns out I need to specify the model file:

builder.add( 
AnalysisEngineFactory.createEngineDescription(LocationOfRelationExtractorAnnotator.class,
        "classifierJarPath", 
"/org/apache/ctakes/relationextractor/models/location_of/model.jar") );

With that, I manged to extract "bodyLocation" for each Identified Annotation.
How about "associatedSignSymptom"? I couldn't find any AnalysisEngine that 
would outputs this attribute.

Thanks.

Hi,

I want to extract relation among entities using cTAKES, eg. procedure is 
carried on which anatomicalSite, SignSymptom occurs on which anatomicalSite and 
is part of which DiseaseDisorder.

Based on cTAKES sourcecode, it seems these classes (DiseaseDisroder, Procedure, 
etc do support such relation through several attributes bodySite, 
associatedSignSymptom, etc). However, I do not know which cTAKES component or 
analysis engine that I should use to get these info.

I also notice there is cTAKES Relation Extraction component, but I have no idea 
how to get it running.

Does anyone happen to have insight on these topics? Thank you!
