• Abstract: In Track-1 of the BioCreative VII Challenge participants are asked to identify interactions between drugs/chemicals and proteins. In-context named entity annotations for each drug/chemical and protein are provided and one of fourteen different interactions must be automatically predicted. For this relation extraction task, we attempt both a BERT-based sentence classification approach, and a more novel text-to-text approach using a T5 model. We find that larger BERT-based models perform better in general, with our BioMegatron-based model achieving the highest scores across all metrics, achieving 0.74 F1 score. Though our novel T5 text-to-text method did not perform as well as most of our BERT-based models, it outperformed those trained on similar data, showing promising results, achieving 0.65 F1 score. We believe a text-to-text approach to relation extraction has some competitive advantages and there is a lot of room for research advancement.

  One of the major challenges in text-to-text parsing is domain generalization, i.e., how to well generalize to unseen databases. In this work, we explore ways to further augment the pre-trained text-to-text transformer model with specialized components for text-to-text parsing. To this end, we propose a new architecture GRAPHIX-T5, augmented by some specially-designed graph-aware model with layers.
