SemEval-2016 Task 12: Clinical TempEval
نویسندگان
چکیده
Clinical TempEval 2016 evaluated temporal information extraction systems on the clinical domain. Nine sub-tasks were included, covering problems in time expression identification, event expression identification and temporal relation identification. Participant systems were trained and evaluated on a corpus of clinical and pathology notes from the Mayo Clinic, annotated with an extension of TimeML for the clinical domain. 14 teams submitted a total of 40 system runs, with the best systems achieving near-human performance on identifying events and times. On identifying temporal relations, there was a gap between the best systems and human performance, but the gap was less than half the gap of Clinical TempEval 2015.

VUACLTL at SemEval 2016 Task 12: A CRF Pipeline to Clinical TempEval
This paper describes VUACLTL, the system the CLTL Lab submitted to the SemEval 2016 Task Clinical TempEval. The system is based on a purely data-driven approach based on a cascade of seven CRF classifiers which use generic features and little domain knowledge. The challenge consisted in six subtasks related to temporal processing clinical notes from raw text (event and temporal expression detec...

In this paper, we describe the system developed for our participation in the Clinical TempEval task of SemEval 2016 (task 12). Our team focused on the subtasks of span and attribute identification from raw text and proposed a system that integrates both statistical and linguistic approaches. Our system is based on Conditional Random Fields with high-precision linguistic features.

In this paper, we describe the KULeuvenLIIR system at the Clinical TempEval 2016 Shared Task for the narrative container relation sub-task (CR). Our approach is based on the cTAKES Temporal system (Lin et al., 2015). We explored extending this system with different features. Moreover, we provide an error analysis of the submitted system, and report on some additional experiments done after subm...

Clinical TempEval 2017 aimed to answer the question: how well do systems trained on annotated timelines for one medical condition (colon cancer) perform in predicting timelines on another medical condition (brain cancer)? Nine sub-tasks were included, covering problems in time expression identification, event expression identification and temporal relation identification. Participant systems we...
متن کاملGUIR at SemEval-2016 task 12: Temporal Information Processing for Clinical Narratives
Extraction and interpretation of temporal information from clinical text is essential for clinical practitioners and researchers. SemEval 2016 Task 12 (Clinical TempEval) addressed this challenge using the THYME1 corpus, a corpus of clinical narratives annotated with a schema based on TimeML2 guidelines. We developed and evaluated approaches for: extraction of temporal expressions (TIMEX3) and ...
