Abstract:Specialised pre-trained language models are becoming more frequent in Natural language Processing (NLP) since they can potentially outperform models trained on generic texts. BioBERT (Sanh et al., Distilbert, a distilled version of bert: smaller, faster, cheaper and lighter. arXiv preprint arXiv: 1910.01108, 2019) and BioClinicalBERT (Alsentzer et al., Publicly available clinical bert embeddings. In Proceedings of the 2nd Clinical Natural Language Processing Workshop, pp. 72–78, 2019) are two examples of such … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
