DT4H_CardioBERTa_parents_sv_enriched

DT4H_CardioBERTa_parents_sv_enriched is a Swedish biomedical terminology encoder for clinical concept normalization and entity linking. It is initialized from [DT4H/CardioBERTa.sv] and specialized using CUI-supervised terminology pairs and metric learning.

Backbone

The backbone belongs to the CardioBERTa family from CardioLM - a multilingual suite of small language models for the cardiology domain. CardioBERTa comprises language-specific encoder models adapted to cardiology through continued pretraining on monolingual biomedical and cardiology-related corpora using Masked Language Modeling (MLM). The family covers Czech, Dutch, English, Italian, Romanian, Spanish and Swedish.

Terminology statistics

Strategy	Triplets	CUIs	Unique terms	Unique positives	Terms/CUI	Δ terms
synonyms	80,858	80,858	155,374	80,488	1.95	0
parents	1,683,288	476,433	539,077	395,832	3.97	+383,703
grandparents	4,915,580	476,972	539,362	447,784	9.89	+383,988

This model uses 1,683,288 triplets, covering 476,433 CUIs and 539,077 unique normalized terms.

The training terminology is not distributed with this repository because it contains resources subject to UMLS licensing conditions. Only aggregate statistics are released.

Intended use

The model is intended for terminology embedding, biomedical candidate retrieval, concept normalization and entity linking, particularly in cardiology and clinical NLP pipelines. It is not intended for direct clinical decision-making.

Usage

import torch
import torch.nn.functional as F
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer

model_id = "DT4H/DT4H_CardioBERTa_parents_sv_enriched"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(model_id)

inputs = tokenizer(
    "clinical concept",
    return_tensors="pt",
    truncation=True,
    max_length=25,
)

with torch.no_grad():
    output = model(**inputs)

embedding = F.normalize(
    output.last_hidden_state[:, 0, :],
    p=2,
    dim=1,
)
