• Abstract: We introduce ChemDisGene, a new dataset for training and evaluating multi-class multi-label document-level biomedical relation extraction models. Our dataset contains 80k biomedical research abstracts labeled with mentions of chemicals, diseases, and genes, portions of which human experts labeled with 18 types of biomedical relationships between these entities (intended for evaluation), and the remainder of which (intended for training) has been distantly labeled via the CTD database with approximately 78\% accuracy. In comparison to similar preexisting datasets, ours is both substantially larger and cleaner; it also includes annotations linking mentions to their entities. We also provide three baseline deep neural network relation extraction models trained and evaluated on our new dataset.

  State-of-the-art deep learning entity linking methods rely on extensive human-labelled data. Current datasets are limited in size, leading to inadequate coverage of biomedical concepts. We propose to automatically generate data to create large-scale training datasets.

  We present BioELQA, a novel model that treats Biomedical Entity Linking as Multiple Choice Question Answering. We first obtains candidate entities with a fast retriever, jointly presents the mention and candidate entities to a generator, and then outputs the predicted symbol associated with its chosen entity. To improve generalization for long-tailed entities, we retrieve similar labeled training instances as clues and the input with retrieved instances for the generator.

Our proposed procedure does not rely on manual annotation during the label aggregation stage. We release our trained unified anatomical segmentation model capable of predicting $142$ anatomical structures on CT data.

  Biomedical relation extraction (RE) is a central task in biomedical natural language processing (NLP) research. We present a novel framework for systematically addressing the data heterogeneity of individual datasets and combining them into a large dataset. Our evaluation shows that BioREx achieves significantly higher performance than the benchmark system trained on the individual dataset.

  We present BioRED, a first-of-its-kind biomedical RE corpus with multiple entity types and relation pairs. We label each relation as describing either a novel finding or previously known background knowledge, enabling automated algorithms to differentiate between novel and background information. Our results show that while existing approaches can reach high performance on the NER task, there is much room for improvement for the RE task.

  The Interaction between Drugs and Targets (DTI) in human body plays a crucial role in biomedical science and applications. As millions of papers come out every year in the biomedical domain, automatically discovering DTI knowledge from literature becomes an urgent demand in the industry. We explore the first end-to-end solution for this task by using generative approaches. We regard the DTI triplets as a sequence and use a Transformer-based model to directly generate them without using the detailed annotations of entities and relations.
