There are a few challenges related to the task of biomedical named entity recognition, which are: the existing methods consider a fewer number of biomedical entities (e.g., disease, symptom, proteins, genes); and these methods do not…
This registered report introduces the largest, and for the first time, reproducible experimental survey on biomedical sentence similarity with the following aims: (1) to elucidate the state of the art of the problem; (2) to solve some…
Rapid growth of the biomedical literature has led to many advances in the biomedical text mining field. Among the vast amount of information, biomedical article abstracts are the easily accessible sources. However, the number of the…
We present a corpus of 5,000 richly annotated abstracts of medical articles describing clinical randomized controlled trials. Annotations include demarcations of text spans that describe the Patient population enrolled, the Interventions…
Clinical trials (CTs) often fail due to inadequate patient recruitment. This paper tackles the challenges of CT retrieval by presenting an approach that addresses the patient-to-trials paradigm. Our approach involves two key components in a…
Section identification is an important task for library science, especially knowledge management. Identifying the sections of a paper would help filter noise in entity and relation extraction. In this research, we studied the paper section…
Clinical text classification is an important problem in medical natural language processing. Existing studies have conventionally focused on rules or knowledge sources-based feature engineering, but only a few have exploited effective…
In evidence-based medicine, relevance of medical literature is determined by predefined relevance conditions. The conditions are defined based on PICO elements, namely, Patient, Intervention, Comparator, and Outcome. Hence, PICO annotations…
The surging amount of biomedical literature & digital clinical records presents a growing need for text mining techniques that can not only identify but also semantically relate entities in unstructured data. In this paper we propose a text…
Clinical texts, represented in electronic medical records (EMRs), contain rich medical information and are essential for disease prediction, personalised information recommendation, clinical decision support, and medication pattern mining…
The COVID-19 pandemic has driven ever-greater demand for tools which enable efficient exploration of biomedical literature. Although semi-structured information resulting from concept recognition and detection of the defining elements of…
Biomedical named entity recognition (NER) is a fundamental task in text mining of medical documents and has many applications. Deep learning based approaches to this task have been gaining increasing attention in recent years as their…
Focusing on particular facts, instead of the complete text, can potentially improve searching for specific information in the scientific literature. In particular, argumentative elements allow focusing on specific parts of a publication,…
In recent years, Deep Learning (DL) models are becoming important due to their demonstrated success at overcoming complex learning problems. DL models have been applied effectively for different Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks such…
Automating the recognition of outcomes reported in clinical trials using machine learning has a huge potential of speeding up access to evidence necessary in healthcare decision-making. Prior research has however acknowledged inadequate…
Large language model (LLM) performance depends heavily on prompt design, yet prompt construction is often described and applied inconsistently. Our purpose was to derive a reference framework for structuring LLM prompts. This paper presents…
Identifying patient cohorts from clinical notes in secondary electronic health records is a fundamental task in clinical information management. However, with the growing number of clinical notes, it becomes challenging to analyze the data…
Reliable identification of molecular biomarkers is essential for accurate patient stratification. While state-of-the-art machine learning approaches for sample classification continue to push boundaries in terms of performance, most of…
$\textbf{Objective}$ Develop an automatic diagnostic system which only uses textual admission information from Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and assist clinicians with a timely and statistically proved decision tool. The hope is that the…
The accurate recognition of symptoms in clinical reports is significantly important in the fields of healthcare and biomedical natural language processing. These entities serve as essential building blocks for clinical information…
