Deep Neural Pretraining for Improving Diagnostic and Therapeutic Entity Recognition in Electronic Medical Records

The predominance of compound agency, a lack of utterance components, and unclear entity boundaries all contribute to difficulties in distinguishing diagnostic and treatment entities in EMRs. Furthermore, obtaining electronic medical records in China may be difficult. A deep learning strategy that uses deep neural pretraining to improve diagnostic and therapeutic entity recognition in EMRs is proposed. A BERT-CRF model example is shown using a dataset of 10,000 EMRs. This paradigm combines the benefits of pretraining with the adaptability of CRF. The outcomes of the study show that deep brain pretraining might be used to improve the performance of NLP applications in the healthcare business. The use of a domain-specific corpus learning technique and an entity recognition model trained on a training dataset improves word embeddings. The suggested system achieved an accuracy (0.973), precision (0.909), recall (0.896), f1-score (0.902) and MCC (0.893) respectively.
