Latest AI and machine learning research in bacterial infection for healthcare professionals.
BACKGROUND: Information regarding bacteria biotopes is important for several research areas including health sciences, microbiology, and food processing and preservation. One of the challenges for scientists in these domains is the huge amount of information buried in the text of electronic resources. Developing methods to automatically extract bacteria habitat relations from the text of these ele...
BACKGROUND: The acquisition of knowledge about relations between bacteria and their locations (habitats and geographical locations) in short texts about bacteria, as defined in the BioNLP-ST 2013 Bacteria Biotope task, depends on the detection of co-reference links between mentions of entities of each of these three types. To our knowledge, no participant in this task has investigated this aspect ...
