Unification of Terminology for Accurate Communication among Experts --- Basic Research to Improve Computability by Structuring Qualitative Textual Descriptions

Abstract

Unification of terminology is desirable for accurate communication among professionals. The most accurate and unified terminology is the physiotherapist national exam questions. This study will extract the terms used in the national examinations, divide them into categories, tag them, eliminate duplications or terms that have the same meaning, and create a glossary of technical terms. The terminology will be created to bridge the gap between educational settings and conferences where peer experts and professionals from multiple professions interact. This study was positioned as basic research for structuring and making computable qualitative textual descriptions written in medical records and other documents.
