Evaluation of optical flow field features for the detection of word prominence in a human-machine interaction scenario

There have been many changes in the medical field due to technological advances. The progression in technologies provides lot of opportunities to extract valuable insights from huge amount of unstructured data. The literature documents published by the researchers in medical domain consists enormous amount of knowledge. Many organizations are involving in retrieving the hidden information from the literature documents. Extracting the drug names, diseases, symptoms, route of administration, species and dosage forms from the textual document is an easy task due to the innovation of technologies in the Natural Language Processing. In this article, a new hybrid based approach is proposed to identify named entity from the medical literature documents. New dictionary has been built for route of administration, dosage forms and symptoms to annotate the entities in the medical documents. The annotated entities are trained by the blank Spacy machine learning model. The trained model provide a decent accuracy when compared with the existing model. The hybrid model is validated with the dictionary and human (optional)to calculate the confusion matrix. It is able to identify more entities than the prevailing model. The average F1 score for five entities of the proposed hybrid based approach 73.79%.

BackgroundIn biomedical text mining, named entity recognition (NER) is an important task used to extract information from biomedical articles. Previously proposed methods for NER are dictionary- or rule-based methods and machine learning approaches. However, these traditional approaches are heavily reliant on large-scale dictionaries, target-specific rules, or well-constructed corpora. These methods to NER have been superseded by the deep learning-based approach that is independent of hand-crafted features. However, although such methods of NER employ additional conditional random fields (CRF) to capture important correlations between neighboring labels, they often do not incorporate all the contextual information from text into the deep learning layers.ResultsWe propose herein an NER system for biomedical entities by incorporating n-grams with bi-directional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) and CRF; this system is referred to as a contextual long short-term memory networks with CRF (CLSTM). We assess the CLSTM model on three corpora: the disease corpus of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), the BioCreative II Gene Mention corpus (GM), and the BioCreative V Chemical Disease Relation corpus (CDR). Our framework was compared with several deep learning approaches, such as BiLSTM, BiLSTM with CRF, GRAM-CNN, and BERT. On the NCBI corpus, our model recorded an F-score of 85.68% for the NER of diseases, showing an improvement of 1.50% over previous methods. Moreover, although BERT used transfer learning by incorporating more than 2.5 billion words, our system showed similar performance with BERT with an F-scores of 81.44% for gene NER on the GM corpus and a outperformed F-score of 86.44% for the NER of chemicals and diseases on the CDR corpus. We conclude that our method significantly improves performance on biomedical NER tasks.ConclusionThe proposed approach is robust in recognizing biological entities in text.
