We developed the KnowledgeMap (KM) system as an online, concept-based database of medical school curriculum documents. It uses the KM concept indexer to map full-text documents and match search queries to concepts in the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS). In this paper, we describe the design of KM and report the first seven months of its implementation into a medical school. Despite being emphasized in only two first year courses and one fourth year course, students from all four classes used KM to search and browse documents. All faculty members involved with courses piloting KM used the system to upload and manage lecture documents. Currently, we are working with eight course directors to transition their courses to KM for next year.
我们开发了知识图谱(KM)系统,作为一个基于概念的在线医学院课程文档数据库。它使用KM概念索引器对全文文档进行映射,并将搜索查询与统一医学语言系统(UMLS)中的概念进行匹配。在本文中,我们描述了KM的设计,并报告了其在一所医学院实施的前七个月情况。尽管KM仅在两门一年级课程和一门四年级课程中得到强调,但四个班级的学生都使用KM来搜索和浏览文档。所有参与KM试点课程的教师都使用该系统上传和管理讲座文档。目前,我们正在与八位课程主任合作,以便将他们的课程在明年过渡到KM系统。
