Abstract
Named-entity recognition (NER) is a crucial task in natural language processing, especially for extracting meaningful information from unstructured text data. In the healthcare domain, accurate NER can significantly enhance patient care by enabling efficient extraction and analysis of clinical information. This paper presents MedNER, a novel service-oriented framework designed specifically for medical NER in Chinese medical texts. MedNER leverages advanced deep learning techniques and domain-specific linguistic resources to achieve good performance in identifying diabetes-related entities such as symptoms, tests, and drugs. The framework integrates seamlessly with real-world healthcare systems, offering scalable and efficient solutions for processing large volumes of clinical data. This paper provides an in-depth discussion on the architecture and implementation of MedNER, featuring the concept of Deep Learning as a Service (DLaaS). A prototype has encapsulated BiLSTM-CRF and BERT-BiLSTM-CRF models into the core service, demonstrating its flexibility, usability, and effectiveness in addressing the unique challenges of Chinese medical text processing.
