• Authors: Jay DeYoung, Iz Beltagy, Madeleine van Zuylen, Bailey Kuehl, Lucy Lu Wang
• Abstract summary: We release MS2 (Multi-Document Summarization of Medical Studies), a dataset of over 470k documents and 20k summaries derived from the scientific literature. This dataset facilitates the development of systems that can assess and aggregate contradictory evidence across multiple studies. We experiment with a summarization system based on BART, with promising early results.

• Abstract: To assess the effectiveness of any medical intervention, researchers must conduct a time-intensive and highly manual literature review. NLP systems can help to automate or assist in parts of this expensive process. In support of this goal, we release MS^2 (Multi-Document Summarization of Medical Studies), a dataset of over 470k documents and 20k summaries derived from the scientific literature. This dataset facilitates the development of systems that can assess and aggregate contradictory evidence across multiple studies, and is the first large-scale, publicly available multi-document summarization dataset in the biomedical domain. We experiment with a summarization system based on BART, with promising early results. We formulate our summarization inputs and targets in both free text and structured forms and modify a recently proposed metric to assess the quality of our system's generated summaries. Data and models are available at https://github.com/allenai/ms2

  We develop an approach that uses lightweight adapter modules to inject structured biomedical knowledge into pre-trained language models. We use two large KGs, the biomedical knowledge system UMLS and the novel biochemical OntoChem, with two prominent biomedical PLMs, PubMedBERT and BioLinkBERT. We show that our methodology leads to performance improvements in several instances while keeping requirements in computing power low.

  We present a systematic evaluation of four representative Large Language Models (LLMs) across 12 BioNLP datasets. The evaluation is conducted under four settings: zero-shot, static few-shot, dynamic K-nearest few-shot, and fine-tuning. We compare these models against state-of-the-art (SOTA) approaches that fine-tune (domain-specific) BERT or BART models.

  This review was conducted to summarize this field and identify topics ripe for future research. We used a combination of content analysis and literature searches to establish search strings and databases of PubMed, Google Scholar, and IEEEXplore from 2011 to 2021. The most common form of information fusion was early fusion. Notably, there was an improvement in predictive performance performing heterogeneous data fusion.
