TY - JOUR T1 - Aggregating Automatically Extracted Regulatory Pathway Relations JF - IEEE Transactions on Information Technology in Biomedicine Y1 - 2006 A1 - Marshall,Byron A1 - Su,Hua A1 - McDonald,Daniel A1 - Eggers,Shauna A1 - Chen,Hsinchun KW - Accounting KW - BIS AB - Automatic tools to extract information from biomedical texts are needed to help researchers leverage the vast and increasing body of biomedical literature. While several biomedical relation extraction systems have been created and tested, little work has been done to meaningfully organize the extracted relations. Organizational processes should consolidate multiple references to the same objects over various levels of granularity, connect those references to other resources, and capture contextual information. We propose a feature decomposition approach to relation aggregation to support a five-level aggregation framework. Our BioAggregate tagger uses this approach to identify key features in extracted relation name strings. We show encouraging feature assignment accuracy and report substantial consolidation in a network of extracted relations.
