Characterize non-chemical treatments

[goodb]

As the 'treatment' annotation is not specific to drugs, it would be interesting to know what other kinds of entities are appearing there. Identify a subset of the treatments with high levels of inter-annotator agreement, manually inspect them to make a statement about what they contain. If there are many, perform an automated analysis using a tool (e.g. Annotator, MetaMap) to map them to high-level semantic groups. This is potentially important particularly because there are not already tools for finding these other kinds of treatments in the literature. It provides a way that the human contributors could generate something unique that machines would miss.

Potential Discussion Points:

• Role this has has M2C moves emphasis away form ER
• New task for subcategorizing Treatment ER annotations
• Is this an extension of current ER UI / UX through more than 3 annotation types
• Is this an extension of current ER UI / UX through custom annotation types
