Sectionizer

I know there has been some chatter about sectionizers. From what I
understand Paula is doing, and from what I understand YTEX does, they are
all regular expression based, correct?

Has anyone added to rule based matching a statistical/Markov type
sectionizer? E.g. one trained from a bunch of notes?

Does Mastif work this way?

Thanks all,
JG

John,
 
I've been out of the loop for a few weeks now w/the cTAKES developer list and will be until end of Feb... too many pressing deadlines.  I have to step through the code again to verify if sectionizer uses reg ex but I'm pretty sure that it does.   Hmmm, that does sound interesting to train the sectionizer from clinical notes.   Not familiar with Mastif so hopefully someone else can chime in on your question there.   Talk to you and everyone very soon.  :-)
 
Regards,
Paula
