Run SemEHR pipeline

A typical SemEHR process contains the following steps:

• query a database to get the documents for processing
• NLP processing (e.g., using bio-yodie to annotate umls concepts)
• index contextualised concepts into an elaticsearch instance
• do patient centric indexing to integrate all patient docs and annotations

To do the process, the easiest way is to

1. setup the database view from which SemEHR will pull documents from.
2. initialise SemEHR index using the mapping file.
3. edit the process configuration file using this template.
4. run the script python semehr_processor.py PATH_TO_YOUR_CONFIGURATION
