Class in charge of converting a list of TextDocuments into a brat collection file.

Hint

BRAT checks the coherence between span and text for each annotation. This converter adjusts the text and spans to get the right visualization and ensure compatibility.

Initialize the Brat output converter

Parameters
  • anns_labels (Optional[List[str]]) – Labels of medkit annotations to convert into Brat annotations. If None (default) all the annotations will be converted

  • attrs (Optional[List[str]]) – Labels of medkit attributes to add in the annotations that will be included. If None (default) all medkit attributes found in the segments or relations will be converted to Brat attributes

  • notes_label (str) – Label of attributes that will be converted to annotator notes.

  • ignore_segments (bool) – If True medkit segments will be ignored. Only entities, attributes and relations will be converted to Brat annotations. If False the medkit segments will be converted to Brat annotations as well.

  • convert_cuis_to_notes (bool) – If True, UMLS normalization attributes will be converted to annotator notes rather than attributes. For entities with multiple UMLS attributes, CUIs will be separated by spaces (ex: “C0011849 C0004096”).

  • create_config (bool) – Whether to create a configuration file for the generated collection. This file defines the types of annotations generated, it is necessary for the correct visualization on Brat.

  • top_values_by_attr (int) – Defines the number of most common values by attribute to show in the configuration. This is useful when an attribute has a large number of values, only the ‘top’ ones will be in the config. By default, the top 50 of values by attr will be in the config.
