KEBLM: Knowledge-Enhanced Biomedical Language Models

Journal of Biomedical Informatics, 2023
Pretrained language models (PLMs) have demonstrated strong performance on many natural language processing (NLP) tasks. Despite their great success, these PLMs are typically pretrained only on unstructured free texts without leveraging existing structured knowledge bases that are readily available for many domains, especially scientific domains.
