Parsing citations in biomedical articles using conditional random fields

Parsing citations in biomedical articles using conditional random fields. Zhang, Q., Cao, Y., & Yu, H. Computers in Biology and Medicine, 41(4):190–194, April, 2011.

Paper doi abstract bibtex

Citations are used ubiquitously in biomedical full-text articles and play an important role for representing both the rhetorical structure and the semantic content of the articles. As a result, text mining systems will significantly benefit from a tool that automatically extracts the content of a citation. In this study, we applied the supervised machine-learning algorithms Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) to automatically parse a citation into its fields (e.g., Author, Title, Journal, and Year). With a subset of html format open-access PubMed Central articles, we report an overall 97.95% F1-score. The citation parser can be accessed at: http://www.cs.uwm.edu/∼qing/projects/cithit/index.html.
