New MITE method uses programming languages for better BioNER

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed MITE, a novel method for improving biomedical named entity recognition (BioNER) by leveraging multiple programming languages for instruction tuning. This approach reformulates BioNER tasks into code-formatted representations in languages like Python, C++, and Java, providing diverse structural supervision without needing external knowledge. During inference, MITE aggregates predictions from these different code formats to enhance robustness and accuracy. Experiments on six BioNER datasets show MITE consistently outperforms existing BERT-based and LLM-based methods, demonstrating strong cross-dataset generalization. AI

IMPACT This method could improve the accuracy and robustness of biomedical information extraction systems.

    Enhancing Biomedical Named Entity Recognition via Multiple Programming Languages Instruction Tuning and Ensemble Method

    arXiv:2610.02949v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Instruction tuning has become a common paradigm for applying large language models (LLMs) to biomedical named entity recognition (BioNER). However, existing instruction-tuning approaches still face two key challenges. First, convent…
