MedTagger

MedTagger contains a suite of programs that the Mayo Clinic NLP program has developed in 2013. It includes three major components: MedTagger for indexing based on dictionaries, MedTaggerIE for information extraction based on patterns, and MedTaggerML for machine learning-based named entity recognition.

Original release: https://github.com/OHNLP/MedTagger/releases

1. Download the latest release from https://github.com/OHNLP/TJA/tree/master/nlp_system

2. Move the .jar file to either THA_NLP or TKA_NLP

3. Modify the INPUTDIR, OUTPUTDIR, and RULEDIR variables in runMedTagger-fit-tja.sh or runMedTagger-fit-tka.sh, as appropriate

   • INPUT_DIR: full directory path of input folder
   • OUTPUT_DIR: full directory path of output folder
   • RULES_DIR: full directory path of 'Rule' folder

   Example:

   INPUTDIR="$YOUR_INPUT_DIRECTORY"
   OUTPUTDIR="$YOUR_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY"
   RULEDIR="$YOUR_MEDTAGGER_HOME/medtaggerieresources/covid19"
   

4. Run the batch file

   run_medtagger_unix_mac.sh
