BioBERT Research Insights

This model is a fine-tuned BioBERT on the PubMed 20k RCT dataset. It classifies sentences from biomedical abstracts into one of five categories:

  • BACKGROUND
  • OBJECTIVE
  • METHODS
  • RESULTS
  • CONCLUSIONS

Usage

from transformers import pipeline

classifier = pipeline("text-classification", model="SubhaL/biobert-research-insights")

example = "The trial demonstrated significant improvement in patient survival rates."
result = classifier(example)

print(result)

Evaluation Metrics

The model was evaluated on the PubMed 20k RCT test dataset, which contains 5 sentence classes:

  • 0: BACKGROUND
  • 1: OBJECTIVE
  • 2: METHODS
  • 3: RESULTS
  • 4: CONCLUSIONS
Metric Score
Accuracy 86.6%
Precision (weighted) 86.7%
Recall (weighted) 86.6%
F1-score (weighted) 86.6%

Class-wise performance highlights:

  • METHODS and RESULTS classes achieve high precision and recall (~93-94%), indicating strong performance in identifying these sections.
  • Lower scores on BACKGROUND and OBJECTIVE suggest these categories are more challenging to distinguish, likely due to overlapping language.
