Search Results for "i2b2 shared task"

Machine learning algorithms have become the key components in many big data applications. However, the full potential of machine learning is still far from being realized because using machine learning algorithms is hard, especially on distributed platforms such as Hadoop and Spark. The key barriers come from not only the implementation of the algorithms themselves but also the processing for applying them to real applications which often involve multiple steps and different algorithms. Our...

This is a Java-based project for complex event extraction from text and co-reference resolution. Currently the code can read BioNLP shared task format (http://2011.bionlp-st.org/) and i2b2 Natural Language Processing for Clinical Data shared task format (https://www.i2b2.org/NLP/DataSets/Main.php). Event extraction includes finding events and the parameters for an event in a text. The method is based on SVM but other ML algorithms can be adopted. The method details are explained in the following paper: Ehsan Emadzadeh, Azadeh Nikfarjam, and Graciela Gonzalez. 2011. ...
