Biomedical Event Extraction, Joint Inference and Dual Decompostion
The cell is the core building block of life, and the subject of a large and ever-growing body of research publications. For life scientists it is hence becoming increasingly difficult to keep track of all information relevant to the cell processes of their interest. This in turn reduces the pace of progress in this field. In this work we show how information about cell processes, or so called biomedical events, can be automatically extracted from literature. While thistask has gathered much recent attention, most work has either used a pipeline of classifiers that is prone to cascading errors, or joint models for which inference is slow and which so far have failed to yield competitive results.
