Interview with Jennings Xu

  • Why is text mining so important?
  • What are the typical challenges and research questions in this area?
  • Are there any typical ones for medical/pharmaceutical research?
  • What data sources could we tap into?

  • Where in the medical field is the biggest problem amongst text data
  • What concepts are used in text mining
  • What is the difference between text mining and natural language processing
