Kindred is a Python3 package for relation extraction in biomedical texts. Given some training data, it can build a model to identify relations between entities (e.g. drugs, genes, etc) in a sentence.

## Installation

You can install "kindred" via [pip](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip/) from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/kindred/)

```bash
pip install kindred
```

Kindred relies on the [Spacy](https://spacy.io) toolkit for parsing. After installing kindred (which also installs spacy), you will need to install a Spacy language model. For instance, the command below installs the English language model::

```bash
python -m spacy download en_core_web_sm
```

## Usage

Check out the [tutorial](https://github.com/jakelever/kindred/tree/master/tutorial) that goes through a simple use case of extracting capital cities from text. More details and the full documentation can be found at [readthedocs](http://kindred.readthedocs.io/).

### BioNLP Shared Task Example

```python
import kindred

# Load the SeeDev corpus
trainCorpus = kindred.bionlpst.load('2016-SeeDev-binary-train')
devCorpus = kindred.bionlpst.load('2016-SeeDev-binary-dev')

# Create a copy of the dev corpus to make predictions on
predictionCorpus = devCorpus.clone()
predictionCorpus.removeRelations()

# Create a relation classifier, train it and make predictions
classifier = kindred.RelationClassifier()
classifier.train(trainCorpus)
classifier.predict(predictionCorpus)

# Get the F1 score of the predicted relations
f1score = kindred.evaluate(devCorpus, predictionCorpus, metric='f1score')
```

### PubAnnotation Example

```python
corpus = kindred.pubannotation.load('bionlp-st-gro-2013-development')
```

### PubTator Example

```python
corpus = kindred.pubtator.load([19894120,19894121])
```

### Input Formats

Kindred can load several formats, including BioNLP Shared Task, JSON, BioC XML and a simple tag format. Check out the [file format documentation](https://kindred.readthedocs.io/en/stable/fileformats.html) for example data and code.

### Citing

It would be wonderful if you could cite the [associated paper](http://aclweb.org/anthology/W17-2322) for this package if used in any academic research.
