Main Abstract:
In radiology, radiologists not only detect lesions from the medical image, but also describe them with various attributes such as their type, location, size, shape, and intensity. While these lesion attributes are rich and useful in many downstream clinical applications, how to extract them from the radiology reports is less studied. This paper outlines a novel deep learning method to automatically extract attributes of lesions of interest from the clinical text. Different from classical CNN models, we integrated the multi-head self-attention mechanism to handle the long-distance information in the sentence, and to jointly correlate different portions of sentence representation subspaces in parallel. Evaluation on an in-house corpus demonstrates that our method can achieve high performance with 0.848 in precision, 0.788 in recall, and 0.815 in F-score. The new method and constructed corpus will enable us to build automatic systems with a higher-level understanding of the radiological world.

[1]: The state-of-the-art methods for protein-protein interaction (PPI) extraction are primarily based on kernel methods, and their performances strongly depend on the handcraft features. In this paper, we tackle PPI extraction by using convolutional neural networks (CNN) and propose a shortest dependency path based CNN (sdpCNN) model. The proposed method (1) only takes the sdp and word embedding as input and (2) could avoid bias from feature selection by using CNN. We performed experiments on standard Aimed and BioInfer datasets, and the experimental results demonstrated that our approach outperformed state-of-the-art kernel based methods. In particular, by tracking the sdpCNN model, we find that sdpCNN could extract key features automatically and it is verified that pretrained word embedding is crucial in PPI task.

[2]: The past decade has seen an explosion in the amount of digital information stored in electronic health records (EHRs). While primarily designed for archiving patient information and performing administrative healthcare tasks like billing, many researchers have found secondary use of these records for various clinical informatics applications. Over the same period, the machine learning community has seen widespread advances in the field of deep learning. In this review, we survey the current research on applying deep learning to clinical tasks based on EHR data, where we find a variety of deep learning techniques and frameworks being applied to several types of clinical applications including information extraction, representation learning, outcome prediction, phenotyping, and deidentification. We identify several limitations of current research involving topics such as model interpretability, data heterogeneity, and lack of universal benchmarks. We conclude by summarizing the state of the field and identifying avenues of future deep EHR research.

[3]:
Owing to the rapid growth of available EHR, deep learning methods for text mining become more appealing recently because of its competitive performance versus traditional methods and its ability to relieve the feature sparsity and engineering issue [2] . For example, both multi-channel dependency-based CNNs [3] and shortest path-based CNNs [1] are well suited for sentence-based relation extraction. It is also generally faster to train a CNN model than other deep learning networks.
