Sorry, I wasn't clear. I am working on a related project and trying to figure out if the code can be repurposed for a lab mention annotator for cTAKES. From what I have seen, test names from different institutions are not standardized which makes it hard to standardize the resulting annotation. Getting access to a larger lab tests dataset (structured) will help me fine tune the model. Hope this helps.
