Drugs4COVID: Combining natural language processing, text mining and knowledge graphs in Health: challenges and a use case

Summary

In this seminar we will describe how we have used a range of state-of-the-art methods, techniques and tools in the areas of Natural Language Processing, text mining and knowledge graphs to build an online system that allows browsing a large corpus of scientific literature that was created and has been maintained since March 2020, with the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic. After providing a general overview of why and how we built the system, we will go into more depth in areas such as probabilistic topic models and knowledge-graph-based question answering.
