The essence of language and its evolutionary determinants have long been research subjects with multifaceted explorations. This work reports on a large-scale observational study focused on the language use of clinicians interacting with a phrase prediction system in a clinical setting. By adopting principles of adaptation to evolutionary selection pressure, we attempt to identify the major determinants of language emergence specific to this context.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the reference cardiovascular diagnostic exams. However, the ECG signal is very prone to being distorted through different sources of artifacts that can later interfere with the diagnostic. For this reason, signal quality assessment (SQA) methods that identify corrupted signals are critical to improve the robustness of automatic ECG diagnostic methods.

Article Synopsis
  • NER models using Transformers have become popular for their performance across different languages and fields, but differences in how they evaluate tokens versus entities are often ignored.
  • This study focuses on French oncological reports, fine-tuning four BERT-based models to classify tokens and assess their performance at both token and entity levels.
  • Results show significant discrepancies in effectiveness between the two evaluation methods and indicate that while BERT outperforms ChatGPT in recognizing complex entities in French, comprehensive evaluation approaches are crucial in NER tasks.
