Weak supervision process for Text-to-UMLS linking. The left four white text boxes displayed the metadata (with examples) of a candidate mention-UMLS pair, identified by a Named Entity Recognition and Linking (NER+L) tool, SemEHR; the coloured text boxes in the middle show the contextual representation block (in ) and the rule-based weak data labelling (in . A binary label is then generated, which weakly estimates whether the candidate pair indicates a correct phenotype of the patient. A phenotype confirmation model (in ) is then learned to select correct phenotypes from the pairs. (Figure adapted from [7]))
