Research on Chinese Medical Entity Recognition Based on Multi-Neural Network Fusion and Improved Tri-Training Algorithm

Abstract

Chinese medical texts contain a large number of medically named entities. Automatic recognition of these medical entities from medical texts is the key to developing medical informatics. In the field of Chinese medical information extraction, annotated Chinese medical text data are very few. In the named entity recognition task, there is insufficient labeled data, which leads to low model recognition performance. Therefore, this paper proposes a Chinese medical entity recognition model based on multi-neural network fusion and the improved Tri-Training algorithm. The model performs semi-supervised learning by improving the Tri-Training algorithm. According to the characteristics of the medical entity recognition task and medical data, the method in this paper is improved in terms of the division of the initial sub-training set, the construction of the base classifier, and the integration of the learning voting method. In addition, this paper also proposes a multi-neural network fusion entity recognition model for base classifier construction. The model learns feature information jointly by combining Iterated Dilated Convolutional Neural Network (IDCNN) and BiLSTM. Through experimental verification, the model proposed in this paper outperforms other models and improves the performance of the Chinese medical entity recognition model by incorporating and improving the semi-supervised learning algorithm.
