Biomedical ontologies are a key component in many systems for the analysis of textual clinical data. They are employed to organize information about a certain domain relying on a hierarchy of different classes. Each class maps a concept to items in a...
The complex linguistic structures and specialized terminology of expert-authored content limit the accessibility of biomedical literature to the general public. Automated methods have the potential to render this literature more interpretable to read...
BACKGROUND: Extracting information from free texts using natural language processing (NLP) can save time and reduce the hassle of manually extracting large quantities of data from incredibly complex clinical notes of cancer patients. This study aimed...
One of the artificial intelligence applications in the biomedical field is knowledge-intensive question-answering. As domain expertise is particularly crucial in this field, we propose a method for efficiently infusing biomedical knowledge into pretr...
In the era of digital healthcare, the huge volumes of textual information generated every day in hospitals constitute an essential but underused asset that could be exploited with task-specific, fine-tuned biomedical language representation models, i...
Disease knowledge graphs have emerged as a powerful tool for artificial intelligence to connect, organize, and access diverse information about diseases. Relations between disease concepts are often distributed across multiple datasets, including uns...
