BioWordVec, improving biomedical word embeddings with subword information and MeSH.

Scientific data
Distributed word representations have become an essential foundation for biomedical natural language processing (BioNLP), text mining and information retrieval. Word embeddings are traditionally computed at the word level from a large corpus of unlab...

The Interplay of Knowledge Representation with Various Fields of Artificial Intelligence in Medicine.

Yearbook of medical informatics
INTRODUCTION: Artificial intelligence (AI) is widespread in many areas, including medicine. However, it is unclear what exactly AI encompasses. This paper aims to provide an improved understanding of medical AI and its constituent fields, and their i...

Combining Context and Knowledge Representations for Chemical-Disease Relation Extraction.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Automatically extracting the relationships between chemicals and diseases is significantly important to various areas of biomedical research and health care. Biomedical experts have built many large-scale knowledge bases (KBs) to advance the developm...

Mining the literature for genes associated with placenta-mediated maternal diseases.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Automated literature analysis could significantly speed up understanding of the role of the placenta and the impact of its development and functions on the health of the mother and the child. To facilitate automatic extraction of information about pl...

Towards a more molecular taxonomy of disease.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Disease taxonomies have been designed for many applications, but they tend not to fully incorporate the growing amount of molecular-level knowledge of disease processes, inhibiting research efforts. Understanding the degree to which we ca...

MeSH Now: automatic MeSH indexing at PubMed scale via learning to rank.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: MeSH indexing is the task of assigning relevant MeSH terms based on a manual reading of scholarly publications by human indexers. The task is highly important for improving literature retrieval and many other scientific investigations in ...

MeSH-Informed Enrichment Analysis and MeSH-Guided Semantic Similarity Among Functional Terms and Gene Products in Chicken.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.)
Biomedical vocabularies and ontologies aid in recapitulating biological knowledge. The annotation of gene products is mainly accelerated by Gene Ontology (GO), and more recently by Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). Here, we report a suite of MeSH pack...

Learning disease relationships from clinical drug trials.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: Our objective is to test the limits of the assumption that better learning from data in medicine requires more granular data. We hypothesize that clinical trial metadata contains latent scientific, clinical, and regulatory expert knowledge...

Improving the utility of MeSH® terms using the TopicalMeSH representation.

Journal of biomedical informatics
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether vector representations encoding latent topic proportions that capture similarities to MeSH terms can improve performance on biomedical document retrieval and classification tasks, compared to using MeSH terms.

Knowledge Extraction from MEDLINE by Combining Clustering with Natural Language Processing.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
The identification of relevant predicates between co-occurring concepts in scientific literature databases like MEDLINE is crucial for using these sources for knowledge extraction, in order to obtain meaningful biomedical predications as subject-pred...
