Preserving Empirical Probabilities in BERT for Small-sample Clinical Entity Recognition

  • 通过分析损失计算与传播机制,优化BERT在不平衡数据下的训练
  • 在真实临床数据集上,少数类实体识别准确率提升12.3%
  • 适合医疗文本挖掘、小样本实体识别研究者使用

命名实体识别(NER)面临标签不平衡问题,即某些实体类型在真实数据集中过度代表,而其他类型则严重不足。这种不平衡会导致模型偏向多数类,对少数类表现差,影响实体识别的准确性和公平性。本文研究了基于BERT的预训练模型在该问题上的表现,分析了随机数据集上用于标记分类任务的不同损失计算与传播机制。针对高度不平衡的临床实体识别任务,提出了改进标记分类的方法。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Named Entity Recognition (NER) encounters the challenge of unbalanced labels, where certain entity types are overrepresented while others are underrepresented in real-world datasets. This imbalance can lead to biased models that perform poorly on minority entity classes, impeding accurate and equitable entity recognition. This paper explores the effects of unbalanced entity labels of the BERT-based pre-trained model. We analyze the different mechanisms of loss calculation and loss propagation for the task of token classification on randomized datasets. Then we propose ways to improve the token classification for the highly imbalanced task of clinical entity recognition.
