Abstract / Description of output

This paper reports on the performance of Edin-burgh_UCL_Health's models in the Social Media Mining for Health (SMM4H) 2022 shared tasks. Our team participated in the tasks related to the Identification of Adverse Drug Events (ADEs), the classification of change in medication (change-med) and the classification of selfreport of vaccination (self-vaccine). Our best performing models are based on DeepADEM-iner (with respective F1= 0.64, 0.62 and 0.39 for ADE identification), on a GloVe model trained on Twitter (with F1=0.11 for the changemed) and finally on a stack embedding including a layer of Glove embedding and two layers of Flair embedding (with F1= 0.77 for selfreport)
