Contemporary Cybernetics
Abstract
BIOMEDICAL CYBERNETICS The University of Illinois (U.S.A.) anatomic path‐ology natural language dictionary, called LEXICON, has evolved over a nine‐year period through several organizations and updates to its present form. It is the result of scanning over one million words of narrative text from tissue examination request forms and surgical pathology reports. The text is passed into individual words which are looked up in LEXICON and flagged by action codes which determine usage in constructing a KWIC index file and an on‐line database retrievable by keywords.
