Abstract/Summary
|
-
We introduce Biomedical Event Finder (BEF), a semantic search engine that finds biomedical events (BE) from PubMed documents. BEF can be accessed via a web interface or a RESTful API. The simple retrieval of biomedical events from journal articles using keyword-based tools suffers from the issue of keyword mismatch; therefore, a key feature of our search engine is that it achieves semantic textual similarity via event embeddings to produce the most comparable results. We describe the primary components of our tool and our preliminary efforts.
