Figure 1.
(A) Annotator screen for a patient with multiple sclerosis. The patient complains of imbalance, leg weakness, and pain, and these concepts have been annotated. Imbalance and pain are labeled as unigrams; leg weakness is labeled a bigram. Annotators were trained to ignore laterality (e.g., right leg weakness.) Each Prodigy screen reflects one line of text from the JSON input file. This screen has three potential items to contribute to the Kappa statistic: imbalance, leg weakness, and pain. (B) Annotator screen for neurological concepts for a patient with multiple sclerosis. The patient denies problems with vision, sensation, bladder, bowel, gait, or falls. The annotators are trained not to annotate negated concepts. The NN had no specific negation rule but learned not to tag negated concepts through training examples. Since there are no signs and symptoms in this screen, if both annotators show no annotations, a score of 1 is assigned to the Kappa statistic for agreement on this screen. If one annotator shows no annotations and another shows annotations on this screen, annotator disagreement is scored.
