## Model description
Biomedical pretrained language model for Spanish. This model is a [RoBERTa-based](https://github.com/pytorch/fairseq/tree/master/examples/roberta) model trained on a **biomedical-clinical** corpus in Spanish collected from several sources.
## Intended uses and limitations
The model is ready-to-use only for masked language modelling to perform the Fill Mask task (try the inference API or read the next section). However, it is intended to be fine-tuned on downstream tasks such as Named Entity Recognition or Text Classification.
## How to use
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("BSC-TeMU/roberta-base-biomedical-es")
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("BSC-TeMU/roberta-base-biomedical-es")
from transformers import pipeline
unmasker = pipeline('fill-mask', model="BSC-TeMU/roberta-base-biomedical-es")
unmasker("El único antecedente personal a reseñar era la <mask> arterial.")
```
```

]
```
## Limitations and bias
At the time of submission, no measures have been taken to estimate the bias embedded in the model. However, we are well aware that our models may be biased since the corpora have been collected using crawling techniques on multiple web sources. We intend to conduct research in these areas in the future, and if completed, this model card will be updated.
## Training
The training corpus has been tokenized using a byte version of [Byte-Pair Encoding (BPE)](https://github.com/openai/gpt-2)
used in the original [RoBERTA](https://github.com/pytorch/fairseq/tree/master/examples/roberta) model with a vocabulary size of 52,000 tokens. The pretraining consists of a masked language model training at the subword level following the approach employed for the RoBERTa base model with the same hyperparameters as in the original work. The training lasted a total of 48 hours with 16 NVIDIA V100 GPUs of 16GB DDRAM, using Adam optimizer with a peak learning rate of 0.0005 and an effective batch size of 2,048 sentences.
The training corpus is composed of several biomedical corpora in Spanish, collected from publicly available corpora and crawlers, and a real-world clinical corpus collected from more than 278K clinical documents and notes. To obtain a high-quality training corpus while retaining the idiosyncrasies of the clinical language, a cleaning pipeline has been applied only to the biomedical corpora, keeping the clinical corpus uncleaned. Essentially, the cleaning operations used are:
- data parsing in different formats
- sentence splitting
- language detection
- filtering of ill-formed sentences
- deduplication of repetitive contents
- keep the original document boundaries
Then, the biomedical corpora are concatenated and further global deduplication among the biomedical corpora have been applied.
Eventually, the clinical corpus is concatenated to the cleaned biomedical corpus resulting in a medium-size biomedical-clinical corpus for Spanish composed of more than 1B tokens. The table below shows some basic statistics of the individual cleaned corpora:
| Name | No. tokens | Description |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| [Medical crawler](https://zenodo.org/record/4561970) | 745,705,946 | Crawler of more than 3,000 URLs belonging to Spanish biomedical and health domains. |
| Clinical cases misc. | 102,855,267 | A miscellany of medical content, essentially clinical cases. Note that a clinical case report is a scientific publication where medical practitioners share patient cases and it is different from a clinical note or document. |
| Clinical notes/documents | 91,250,080 | Collection of more than 278K clinical documents, including discharge reports, clinical course notes and X-ray reports, for a total of 91M tokens. |
| [Scielo](https://github.com/PlanTL-SANIDAD/SciELO-Spain-Crawler) | 60,007,289 | Publications written in Spanish crawled from the Spanish SciELO server in 2017. |
| [BARR2_background](https://temu.bsc.es/BARR2/downloads/background_set.raw_text.tar.bz2) | 24,516,442 | Biomedical Abbreviation Recognition and Resolution (BARR2) containing Spanish clinical case study sections from a variety of clinical disciplines. |
| Wikipedia_life_sciences | 13,890,501 | Wikipedia articles crawled 04/01/2021 with the [Wikipedia API python library](https://pypi.org/project/Wikipedia-API/) starting from the "Ciencias\_de\_la\_vida" category up to a maximum of 5 subcategories. Multiple links to the same articles are then discarded to avoid repeating content. |
| Patents | 13,463,387 | Google Patent in Medical Domain for Spain (Spanish). The accepted codes (Medical Domain) for Json files of patents are: "A61B", "A61C","A61F", "A61H", "A61K", "A61L","A61M", "A61B", "A61P". |
| [EMEA](http://opus.nlpl.eu/download.php?f=EMEA/v3/moses/en-es.txt.zip) | 5,377,448 | Spanish-side documents extracted from parallel corpora made out of PDF documents from the European Medicines Agency. |
| [mespen_Medline](https://zenodo.org/record/3562536#.YTt1fH2xXbR) | 4,166,077 | Spanish-side articles extracted from a collection of Spanish-English parallel corpus consisting of biomedical scientific literature. The collection of parallel resources are aggregated from the MedlinePlus source. |
| PubMed | 1,858,966 | Open-access articles from the PubMed repository crawled in 2017. |
## Evaluation
The model has been evaluated on the Named Entity Recognition (NER) using the following datasets:
- [PharmaCoNER](https://zenodo.org/record/4270158): is a track on chemical and drug mention recognition from Spanish medical texts (for more info see: https://temu.bsc.es/pharmaconer/).
- [CANTEMIST](https://zenodo.org/record/3978041#.YTt5qH2xXbQ): is a shared task specifically focusing on named entity recognition of tumor morphology, in Spanish (for more info see: https://zenodo.org/record/3978041#.YTt5qH2xXbQ).
- ICTUSnet: consists of 1,006 hospital discharge reports of patients admitted for stroke from 18 different Spanish hospitals. It contains more than 79,000 annotations for 51 different kinds of variables.
The evaluation results are compared against the [mBERT](https://huggingface.co/bert-base-multilingual-cased) and [BETO](https://huggingface.co/dccuchile/bert-base-spanish-wwm-cased) models:
| F1 - Precision - Recall | roberta-base-biomedical-clinical-es | mBERT | BETO |
|---------------------------|----------------------------|-------------------------------|-------------------------|
| PharmaCoNER | **90.04** - **88.92** - **91.18** | 87.46 - 86.50 - 88.46 | 88.18 - 87.12 - 89.28 |
| CANTEMIST | **83.34** - **81.48** - **85.30** | 82.61 - 81.12 - 84.15 | 82.42 - 80.91 - 84.00 |
| ICTUSnet | **88.08** - **84.92** - **91.50** | 86.75 - 83.53 - 90.23 | 85.95 - 83.10 - 89.02 |
