How COVID-19 Brought About A Faster NLP For Clinical Text

Machine learning technologies, such as Natural Language Processing (NLP), are being increasingly deployed in healthcare settings especially during last year’s pandemic. Analysing text to identify diseases is among the primary tasks medical NLP systems are required to perform. Traditionally, training such classifiers for Named Entity Recognition (NER) has relied on hand-labelled training data. Such practices,…
