===WORKSHOP OVERVIEW AND SCOPE===
 +
 
 +
Over the course of the past fourteen years, the ACL BioNLP workshop associated with the SIGBIOMED special interest group has established itself as the primary venue for presenting foundational research in language processing for the biological and medical domains. The workshop serves as both a venue for bringing together researchers in bio- and clinical NLP and exposing these researchers to the mainstream ACL research, and a venue for informing the mainstream ACL researchers about the fast growing and important domain. 
 +
 +
The workshop will continue presenting work on a broad and interesting range of topics in NLP. 
 +
 
 +
The active areas of research include:
 +
 
 +
* Entity identification and normalization for a broad range of semantic categories
 +
* Extraction of complex relations and events
 +
* Discourse analysis
 +
* Anaphora /Coreference resolution
 +
* Text mining
 +
** Literature based discovery
 +
* Summarization
 +
* Question Answering
 +
* Resources and novel strategies for system testing and evaluation
 +
** Infrastructures for biomedical text mining
 +
* Processing and annotation platforms
 +
* Translating NLP research to practice
 +
* Theoretical underpinnings of biomedical language processing

 +
BioASQ assesses the performance of information systems in supporting two tasks that are central in the biomedical question answering process: (a) the indexing of large volumes of unlabeled data, primarily scientific articles, with biomedical concepts, (b) the processing of biomedical questions and the generation of answers and supporting material.

Two tasks will be associated with the workshop this year:

The BioNLP Shared Task (BioNLP-ST) has been organized three times so far, leading to the development of information extraction systems for molecular biology and medicine in 2009, 2011 and 2013. One of the major contributions of BioNLP-ST is the availability of resources such as high quality manually curated corpora, tools, and evaluation services.

Shared Task Organizers:
  • Sophia Ananiadou, National Centre for Text Mining and University of Manchester, UK
  • Riza Theresa Batista-Navarro, National Centre for Text Mining and University of Manchester, UK
  • Robert Bossy, INRA, France
  • Jin-Dong Kim, Database Center for Life Science (DBCLS), Japan
  • Claire Nedellec, INRA, France

The second equally successful shared task, the BioASQ challenge on large-scale biomedical semantic indexing and question answering has been running on an annual basis since 2012. The results of the challenge were presented in a workshop, which has so far been taking place in conjunction with the CLEF conference and was extremely well-attended.

BioASQ assesses the performance of information systems in supporting two tasks that are central in the biomedical question answering process: (a) the indexing of large volumes of unlabeled data, primarily scientific articles, with biomedical concepts, (b) the processing of biomedical questions and the generation of answers and supporting material.

  • Ioannis Kakadiaris University of Houston, USA
