Overview of BioNLP Shared Task 2013

TLDR
The BioNLP Shared Task 2013 shows advances in the state of the art and demonstrates that extraction methods can be successfully generalized in various aspects.
Abstract
The BioNLP Shared Task 2013 is the third edition of the BioNLP Shared Task series that is a community-wide effort to address fine-grained, structural information extraction from biomedical literature. The BioNLP Shared Task 2013 was held from January to April 2013. Six main tasks were proposed. 38 final submissions were received, from 22 teams. The results show advances in the state of the art and demonstrate that extraction methods can be successfully generalized in various aspects.

In Layman's Terms: Semi-Open Relation Extraction from Scientific Texts

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combine the output of both types of systems to achieve Semi-Open Relation Extraction, a new task that they explore in the Biology domain. But narrow IE systems extract only a fraction of the information captured, and Open IE systems do not perform well on the long and complex sentences encountered in scientific texts.

Overview of BioNLP'09 Shared Task on Event Extraction

TL;DR: The design and implementation of the BioNLP'09 Shared Task is presented, indicating that state-of-the-art performance is approaching a practically applicable level and revealing some remaining challenges.

Performance measures for information extraction

TL;DR: An error measure is defined, the slot error rate, which combines the different types of error directly, without having to resort to precision and recall as preliminary measures.

PANTHER Pathway: An Ontology-Based Pathway Database Coupled with Data Analysis Tools

TL;DR: This chapter first discusses how biological knowledge is represented, particularly the importance of ontologies or standards in systems biology research, and uses PANTHER Pathway as an example to illustrate how ontologies and standards play a role in data modeling, data entry, and data display.

Evaluating temporal relations in clinical text: 2012 i2b2 Challenge.

TL;DR: A corpus of discharge summaries annotated with temporal information was provided to be used for the development and evaluation of temporal reasoning systems, and the best systems overwhelmingly adopted a rule based approach for value normalization.
