Recently, neural joint learning of both tasks has been proposed to utilize the mutual benefits.

This study introduces a novel end-to-end approach that combines span representations with dictionary-matching features to address this problem. Our model handles unseen concepts by referring to a dictionary while maintaining the performance of neural network-based models, in an end-to-end fashion. Experiments using two major datasets demonstrate that our model achieved competitive results with strong baselines, especially for unseen concepts during training.",

"text": "Identifying disease names , which is generally called biomedical entity linking, is the fundamental process of biomedical natural language processing, and it can be utilized in applications such as a literature search system ) and a biomedical relation extraction (Xu et al., 2016 ). The usual system to identify disease names consists of two modules: named entity recognition (NER) and named entity normalization (NEN). NER is the task that recognizes the span of a disease name, from the start position to the end position. NEN is the post-processing of NER, normalizing a disease name into a controlled vocabulary, such as a MeSH or Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM).",

Based on the span-based model introduced by Lee et al. 2017, our model first computes span representations for all possible spans of the input sentence and then combines the dictionarymatching features with the span representations. Using the score obtained from both features, it directly classifies the disease concept. Thus, our model can handle the zero-shot problem by using dictionary-matching features while maintaining the performance of the NN-based models. Our model is also effective in situations other than the zero-shot condition. Consider the following input sentence: \"We report the case of a patient who developed acute hepatitis,\" where \"hepatitis\" is the target entity that should be normalized to \"drug-induced hepatitis.\" While the longer span \"acute hepatitis\" also appears plausible for standalone NER models, our end-to-end architecture assigns a higher score to the correct shorter span \"hepatitis\" due to the existence of the normalized term (\"drug-induced hepatitis\") in the dictionary.",
