Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Despite their general capabilities, LLMs struggle on biomedicalNER tasks due to specialized terminology and lack of training data. |
| Approach: | They propose a new knowledge augmentation approach which incorporates definitions of relevant concepts on-the-fly. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach improves performance on biomedicalNER tasks by 15% (on average) The proposed method outperforms fine-tuned language models in few-shot settings. |
