Chapter Overview
The importance of biomedical concept relationships and document concept interrelationships are discussed and some of the ways in which concept relationships have been used in information search and retrieval are reviewed. We look at examples of innovative approaches utilizing biomedical concept identification and relationships for improved document and information retrieval and analysis that support knowledge creation and management.
