NCBI Disease

Introduced in NCBI disease corpus: A resource for disease name recognition and concept normalization1 Jan 2014 archive 2025-07-28

The NCBI Disease corpus consists of 793 PubMed abstracts, which are separated into training (593), development (100) and test (100) subsets. The NCBI Disease corpus is annotated with disease mentions, using concept identifiers from either MeSH or OMIM.

Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28

All 3 leaderboards whose dataset resolves to this page shown (sort by any header). "First row" is the archive's own first row at snapshot, in the archive's row order; nothing here re-ranks and metric direction is not asserted.

Papers archive 2025-07-28

23 shown of 23 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 154. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
