Question-Answering and E-Health: An advanced perspective in Specialized Information Retrieval Olvera Lobo, María Dolores Gutiérrez Artacho, Juncal Restricted-domain QA Systems e-Health Question Answering Systems Information Retrieval Biomedical QA System IX Conferencia Ibérica de Sistemas y Tecnologías de la Información: CISTI 2014, 18-21 de junio de 2014 (Barcelona, España). In the field of Information Retrieval (IR), new approaches have emerged in order to offer more efficient data/information. This is the case with Question Answering (QA) systems that try to offer precise and understandable answers to factual questions. We have analyzed the state of Biomedical QA systems, we have evaluated the performance of those systems on the Web, and we present new trends in this emerging area. 2015-05-04T07:38:48Z 2015-05-04T07:38:48Z 2014 conference output Olvera Lobo, M.D.; Gutiérrez-Artacho, J.
