Abstract
Mining the Electronic Medical Record (EMR henceforth) is growing in popularity but still lacks good methods for better understanding the text in EMR. One important task is assigning proper International Classification of Diseases (ICD henceforth, which is the code schema for EMR) code based on the narrative text of EMR document. For the task, we propose an automatic feature extraction method by means of capturing semantic relational tuples. We proved the semantic relational tuple is able to capture information at semantic level and it contribute to ICD-9 classification task in two aspects, negation identification and feature generation.
