Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Biomedical relation extraction aims to reveal the relation between entities in medical texts. Currently, the relation extraction models that have attracted much attention are mainly to fine-tune the pre-trained language models (PLMs) or add template prompt learning, which also limits the ability of the model to deal with grammatical dependencies. Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) can play an important role in processing syntactic dependencies in biomedical texts.
