Developing a Clinical Language Model for Swedish: Continued Pretraining of Generic BERT with In-Domain Data.
The first paper in collaboration with the Norwegian Centre for E-health Research in Tromsø. Norway and the second paper also with the HiTZ Center – Ixa, University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU, Donostia, Spain.
The two first papers study how to automatically assign ICD-10 diagnosis codes to a discharge summary, for Swedish and for Spanish a respectively. Usually this time consuming work is carried out manually by a physician or a coder.We use machine learning and specifically Deep AI Learning to perform this and already manually assign codes to discharges summaries.
In the third paper is constructed a clinical deep learning BERT model for Swedish that performs much better than a regular non-clinical model for clinical down stream tasks as for example automatic ICD-10 diagnosis coding.
