This paper describes the system used in Task-7 (Analysis of Clinical Text) of SemEval-2014 for detecting disorder mentions and associating them with their related CUI of UMLS 1 . For Task-A, a CRF based sequencing algorithm was used to find different medical entities and a binary SVM classifier was used to find relationship between entities. For Task-B, a dictionary look-up algorithm on a customized UMLS-2012 dictionary was used to find relative CUI for a given disorder mention.
