Since dictionary matching produces a large number of false positives we developed a method of machine learning-based named entity recognition (NER) to filter out false recognitions of disease/gene names. We found that the performance of relation extraction depends on the performance of NER filtering and that the filtering improves the precision of relation extraction by 26.7% at the cost of a small reduction in recall., We extracted disease-gene relations from MedLine using disease/gene dictionaries which are constructed from six public DBs.
