High-precision biological event extraction with a concept recognizer
نویسندگان
چکیده
We approached the problems of event detection, argument identification, and negation and speculation detection as one of concept recognition and analysis. Our methodology involved using the OpenDMAP semantic parser with manually-written rules. We achieved state-of-the-art precision for two of the three tasks, scoring the highest of 24 teams at precision of 71.81 on Task 1 and the highest of 6 teams at precision of 70.97 on Task 2. The OpenDMAP system and the rule set are available at bionlp.sourceforge.net. *These two authors contributed equally to the paper.

Entity recognition in the biomedical domain using a hybrid approach
BACKGROUND This article describes a high-recall, high-precision approach for the extraction of biomedical entities from scientific articles. METHOD The approach uses a two-stage pipeline, combining a dictionary-based entity recognizer with a machine-learning classifier. First, the OGER entity recognizer, which has a bias towards high recall, annotates the terms that appear in selected domain ...
متن کاملHigh-Precision Biological Event Extraction: Effects of System and of Data
We approached the problems of event detection, argument identification, and negation and speculation detection in the BioNLP'09 information extraction challenge through concept recognition and analysis. Our methodology involved using the OpenDMAP semantic parser with manually written rules. The original OpenDMAP system was updated for this challenge with a broad ontology defined for the events ...
متن کاملA Multi-Phase Approach to Biomedical Event Extraction
In this paper, we propose a system for biomedical event extraction using multi-phase approach. It consists of event trigger detector, event type classifier, and relation recognizer and event compositor. The system firstly identifies triggers in a given sentence. Then, it classifies the triggers into one of nine predefined classes. Lastly, the system examines each trigger whether it has a relati...
متن کاملA Unified Model of Phrasal and Sentential Evidence for Information Extraction
Information Extraction (IE) systems that extract role fillers for events typically look at the local context surrounding a phrase when deciding whether to extract it. Often, however, role fillers occur in clauses that are not directly linked to an event word. We present a new model for event extraction that jointly considers both the local context around a phrase along with the wider sentential...
متن کاملA Biological Named Entity Recognizer
In this paper we describe a new named entity extraction system. Our system is based on a manually developed set of rules that rely heavily upon some crucial lexical information, linguistic constraints of English, and contextual information. This system achieves state of art results in the protein name detection task, which is what many of the current name extraction systems do. We discuss the n...
