The primary purpose of this DAG is to extract named entities from research documents, facilitating the enhancement of knowledge management systems in the life sciences sector. The workflow is triggered by the addition of new documents or updates to the database, ensuring that the system remains current. The data sources include research papers, clinical trial reports, and regulatory documents. The ingestion pipeline begins with the preprocessing of these documents, which involves text normalization and formatting to prepare the data for analysis. Following preprocessing, the named entity extraction step utilizes advanced natural language processing algorithms to identify and categorize entities such as genes, proteins, and chemical compounds. Quality control measures are implemented to validate the accuracy of the extracted entities, including automated checks and manual reviews. The final outputs are integrated into a knowledge management system, providing structured data that can be easily queried and analyzed. Key performance indicators (KPIs) monitored include extraction accuracy rates and the volume of entities extracted, which are critical for assessing the effectiveness of the workflow. The business value lies in improved data accessibility and enhanced decision-making capabilities for researchers and stakeholders in the life sciences industry.
