Custom NLP pipeline for information extraction in a clinical setting

State-of-the-art natural language processing tools are rapidly improving in being able to identify real-world objects in texts (e.g. person, location, organization). However, the vocabularies and document structures used in a medical setting can vary from general language corpus from which the NLP models were trained; resulting in poor performance. This project will fine-tune existing NLP […]
