首个英越双语医学实体识别语料库，支持跨语言医疗AI研究

Biomedical Named Entity Recognition (NER) is fundamental to healthcare AI applications, including clinical decision support and medical information extraction. While corpora with Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) annotations, such as MedMentions, have driven progress in English biomedical NER, no comparable resource exists for Vietnamese. This paper presents En-ViMedNER, the first English-Vietnamese parallel biomedical NER corpus annotated with UMLS semantic types, which are language-neutral codes providing a shared cross-lingual label space and ensuring direct comparability with existing UMLS-based resources. The corpus contains 4,392 PubMed abstract pairs, 44,892 English-Vietnamese sentence pairs, and 202,949 aligned entity-mention pairs across 21 semantic types adapted from the MedMentions ST21pv dataset. To balance quality and scalability, we have constructed the corpus through automatic translation, expert post-editing, LLM-assisted label projection, and human verification and adjudication. We characterize En-ViMedNER as a large-scale silver-standard corpus with a human-audited and consensus-corrected mini-test subset. We evaluate En-ViMedNER in two settings: (i) Vietnamese-input/Vietnamese-output biomedical NER and (ii) English-input/Vietnamese-output cross-lingual NER. For Vietnamese NER, we benchmark Vietnamese-supervised encoder models, English-supervised multilingual encoder models, and prompt-based LLMs. The best model achieves an F1 score of 52.70 on the test set and 53.78 on the mini-test set. For cross-lingual NER, we benchmark encoder-decoder models and prompt-based LLMs. The best model achieves an F1 score of 45.44 on the mini-test set. We publicly release our corpus, corpus construction pipeline, and baseline models to facilitate future Vietnamese biomedical NLP research.
