Medical Map #14

Hi,

We are trying to map medical articles. I looked at the PMC-OA dataset but the words are not recognized as per medical terms. Have any of you dealt with NER for medical articles. I am exploring Metamap from NLM. I was wondering if the bazaar parser already has something that does NER tagging for medical articles

Any help is highly appreciated

regards, Manjunath

Hi,

bazaar parser uses coreNLP from Stanford. The Stanford NER module in coreNLP has included 3 different standard models.

Models:

3 class: Location, Person, Organization 4 class: Location, Person, Organization, Misc 7 class: Location, Person, Organization, Money, Percent, Date, Time

For further information, have a look here: http://nlp.stanford.edu/software/CRF-NER.shtml

So i think in your case you need to train your own NER model for medical articels.
