Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | The Bacteria Biotope task focuses on the extraction of the locations and phenotypes of microorganisms from PubMed abstracts and full-text excerpts. |
| Approach: | They propose to use PubMed abstracts and full-text excerpts to extract the locations and phenotypes of microorganisms and to characterizations of these entities with respect to reference knowledge sources. |
| Outcome: | The proposed subtasks, the corpus characteristics, and the challenge organization are compared with the previous edition in 2016 and the results are presented in the second edition. |

| Challenge: | Entity normalization is an important subtask of information extraction . it links entities mentions in text to categories or concepts in a reference vocabulary . |
| Approach: | They propose a method that uses corpus selection, pre-processing and weak supervision strategies to address the scarcity of training data. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods in terms of accuracy and parametrization . it uses corpus selection, pre-processing and weak supervision strategies . |
Combining rule-based and embedding-based approaches to normalize textual entities with an ontology (L18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a method to normalize multi-word terms with concepts from a domain-specific ontology is proposed . a large part of knowledge is expressed in textual form, such as in scientific articles . |
| Approach: | They propose a method to normalize multi-word terms with concepts from a domain-specific ontology. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms existing methods on a categorization task in bacterial habitats . the results are encouraging, and the proposed method is expected to be widely used in the biomedical/biological field . |
