Researchers have developed a novel method for extracting structured information from semi-structured OCR clinical reports, addressing challenges posed by data silos and noisy text. The approach formulates the problem as key-conditioned extractive question answering, using iterative key mining and normalization to build a canonical key inventory. Experiments show that performance improves with key coverage, with a BERT-based model achieving high F1 scores when the top 90 canonical keys are covered, outperforming a Qwen3 baseline. AI
IMPACT This method could improve the integration of fragmented clinical data, enabling better patient management and research.
