Abstract

An important source of medical information for forming multimodal datasets to train neural networks is electronic patient records. In order to process data from electronic health records with a specified purpose, the number of requirements must be met - first of all, de-identification. This paper discusses the first stage of this process - searching for named entities in medical texts (which should be replaced or encrypted afterwards). The problem is solved by an example of semi-structured EHRs in Russian as a fusional, grammatically complex language. The structure and specificity of EMC typical for Russia is analyzed in detail. A problem-oriented comparison of approaches to solving the NER problem is carried out. We developed a pipeline for processing of HER and experimentally showed the advantages of the rule-based method over using specialized libraries. The achieved Recall and Precision values were 0.990 and 0.980 respectively.
