Prerequisites

Please install following dependencies or use the Dockerized labeler (see below).

  1. Clone the NegBio repository:
git clone https://github.com/ncbi-nlp/NegBio.git
  1. Add the NegBio directory to your PYTHONPATH:
export PYTHONPATH={path to negbio directory}:$PYTHONPATH
  1. Make the virtual environment:
conda env create -f environment.yml
  1. Activate the virtual environment:
conda activate chexpert-label
  1. Install NLTK data:
python -m nltk.downloader universal_tagset punkt wordnet
  1. Download the GENIA+PubMed parsing model:
>>> from bllipparser import RerankingParser
>>> RerankingParser.fetch_and_load('GENIA+PubMed')

Usage

Place reports in a headerless, single column csv {reports_path}. Each report must be contained in quotes if (1) it contains a comma or (2) it spans multiple lines. See sample_reports.csv (with output labeled_reports.csv)for an example.

python label.py --reports_path {reports_path}

Run python label.py --help for descriptions of all of the command-line arguments.

Dockerized Labeler

docker build -t chexpert-labeler:latest .
docker run -v $(pwd):/data chexpert-labeler:latest \
  python label.py --reports_path /data/sample_reports.csv --output_path /data/labeled_reports.csv --verbose
