ZoomRx | Data Science Case Study

Background
ZoomRx is working on a product which requires to accurately process and classify biomedical
literature. Mapping biomedical short forms (​eg: HIV​) with their long forms (​eg: Human
Immunodeficiency Virus​) is an important component of this process.

Case Objective
We want you to come with a scalable solution which recognizes, extracts, and maps the short
form with the corresponding long form in a given sentence.
