I have what (I hope) is an easier problem and would be grateful for pointers to existing software that can be used to mark up XML documents [primarily in English]. We have developed an XML representation (VHG) for controlled vocabularies which are widely used for "encoding" reports and other information. These vocabularies have about 10K terms each, consisting of single words or phrases (e.g. "acne", "Asian cholera", etc.. [Our current examples are dictionaries of disease terms from world authorities.] The [pharmaceutical] industry/regulators spend much time in "encoding" (== markup). In general the dictionaries do not have indexHeadings, stemming, pronunciations, US/Eur variants etc. (though we are hoping to promote the communal capture of such knowledge through WWW-based collaboration). We wish to be able to markup such terms as automatically as possible, e.g. <P>The patient developed acne</P> could be transformed to <P>The patient developed <simpleLink href="icd10_L70.0">acne</simpleLink></P> The current encoding procedures are not complex (often manual) and I'm not looking for rocket science (e.g. no automatic extraction of terms, concept analysis, etc.) I want to avoid re-inventing the wheel because I assume lots have people have already done this.
