Fine-Tuning Models for Biomedical Relation Extraction

Read the original on arXiv Computation and Language →

The paper introduces pre‑trained models for extracting variant‑phenotype relations from biomedical text, focusing on the SNPPhenA corpus. Fine‑tuning small BERT‑based models, especially DeBERTa, achieves performance close to the current state‑of‑the‑art. Moreover, careful fine‑tuning of Google’s Gemini Pro 1.0 surpasses existing benchmarks on both sentence‑level and abstract‑level relation extraction tasks.

MiNER: Fine-Tuned Biomedical Natural Language Processing for Malaria Disease Entity Recognition in Clinical Texts

The paper introduces MiNER, a fine‑tuned biomedical NLP system that uses BioBERT to extract malaria‑related named entities from scientific literature. It builds a large, annotated corpus of malaria articles, preprocesses the text, and applies supervised learning to improve extraction performance. Experiments show that MiNER outperforms other encoding and machine‑learning methods in precision, recall, and accuracy, and the authors release the human‑labeled dataset for further research.

PiPMRE: A Pipeline Based on Language Model for Medical Relation Extraction

PiPMRE is a new pipeline for medical relation extraction that uses language models instead of traditional tagging schemes. The framework includes a relation generator that produces multiple relational triplets from a text and a relation filter that scores and selects the most reliable triplets. Experiments on two public datasets show that PiPMRE outperforms previous state‑of‑the‑art methods, improving recall by 5.6 points and accuracy by 4.4 points, and it also performs well in few‑shot scenarios.
