Offhand, I don't recall why it ended up the way it did.
I see a comment at line 303 indicating that at one point at least severity was
expected for DiseaseDisorder
// degree_of is aka severity, which applies to
SignSymptomMention/SignSymptom and DiseaseDisorder
Not sure if there was a change after that comment was written, or if it is
simply a bug that it wasn't implemented on line 321

Chase,
I am not sure why or the reasoning behind this, but it might explain why
Severity is null for your DiseaseDisorderMention example:
Line 319 in TemplateFillerAnnotator.java:
If I'm reading this logic correctly, it will only populate severity for
SignSymptomMention.... Can't think of why not to populate it if it exists in
the BinaryTextRelations-
have you tried adding: ddm.setSeverity(degreeOfTextRelation); instead of
logging the error ???
if (eventMention instanceof
DiseaseDisorderMention) {
DiseaseDisorderMention ddm =
(DiseaseDisorderMention) eventMention;
logger.error("Need to implement attr
for " + relation + " for DiseaseDisorderMention");
} else if (eventMention instanceof
SignSymptomMention) {
SignSymptomMention ssm =
(SignSymptomMention) eventMention;
ssm.setSeverity(degreeOfTextRelation);
Would you mind opening a Jira attach a patch/test if it works for you?
