Remedy: Supporting consumer-centered medication information search

摘要

Remedy is a prototype consumer-centered medication-information search system, developed by applying text-processing techniques and probabilistic generative topic-modeling approaches. Our prototype system includes tools to increase consumer recognition of quality and relevance indicators in medication-related search results. Attendees will be able to use Remedy to search for a range of over-the-counter and prescription medications, and can compare the search experience with that of popular online web search interfaces.
