Query: A Linear Classifier Based on Entity Recognition Tools and a Statistical
  Approach to Method Extraction in the Protein-Protein Interaction Literature   We participated, in the Article Classification and the Interaction Method
subtasks (ACT and IMT, respectively) of the Protein-Protein Interaction task of
the BioCreative III Challenge. For the ACT, we pursued an extensive testing of
available Named Entity Recognition and dictionary tools, and used the most
promising ones to extend our Variable Trigonometric Threshold linear
classifier. For the IMT, we experimented with a primarily statistical approach,
as opposed to employing a deeper natural language processing strategy. Finally,
we also studied the benefits of integrating the method extraction approach that
we have used for the IMT into the ACT pipeline. For the ACT, our linear article
classifier leads to a ranking and classification performance significantly
higher than all the reported submissions. For the IMT, our results are
comparable to those of other systems, which took very different approaches. For
the ACT, we show that the use of named entity recognition tools leads to a
substantial improvement in the ranking and classification of articles relevant
to protein-protein interaction. Thus, we show that our substantially expanded
linear classifier is a very competitive classifier in this domain. Moreover,
this classifier produces interpretable surfaces that can be understood as
"rules" for human understanding of the classification. In terms of the IMT
task, in contrast to other participants, our approach focused on identifying
sentences that are likely to bear evidence for the application of a PPI
detection method, rather than on classifying a document as relevant to a
method. As BioCreative III did not perform an evaluation of the evidence
provided by the system, we have conducted a separate assessment; the evaluators
agree that our tool is indeed effective in detecting relevant evidence for PPI
detection methods.
