The medical concept normalisation task aims to map textual descriptions to standard terminologies such as SNOMED-CT or MedDRA. |
|
|
|
Existing publicly available datasets annotated using different terminologies cannot be simply merged and utilised, and therefore become less |
|
valuable when developing machine learningbased concept normalisation systems. |
|
|
|
To address that, we designed a data harmonisation pipeline and engineered a corpus of 27,979 textual descriptions simultaneously mapped to both MedDRA and SNOMED-CT, |
|
sourced from five publicly available datasets across biomedical and social media domains. |
